SECURITY:
* Cert auth backend now checks validity of individual certificates: In
previous versions of Vault, validity (e.g. expiration) of individual leaf
certificates added for authentication was not checked. This was done to make
it easier for administrators to control lifecycles of individual
certificates added to the backend, e.g. the authentication material being
checked was access to that specific certificate's private key rather than
all private keys signed by a CA. However, this behavior is often unexpected
and as a result can lead to insecure deployments, so we are now validating
these certificates as well.
* App-ID path salting was skipped in 0.7.1/0.7.2: A regression in 0.7.1/0.7.2
caused the HMACing of any App-ID information stored in paths (including
actual app-IDs and user-IDs) to be unsalted and written as-is from the API.
In 0.7.3 any such paths will be automatically changed to salted versions on
access (e.g. login or read); however, if you created new app-IDs or user-IDs
in 0.7.1/0.7.2, you may want to consider whether any users with access to
Vault's underlying data store may have intercepted these values, and
revoke/roll them.
DEPRECATIONS/CHANGES:
* Step-Down is Forwarded: When a step-down is issued against a non-active node
in an HA cluster, it will now forward the request to the active node.
FEATURES:
* **ed25519 Signing/Verification in Transit with Key Derivation**: The
`transit` backend now supports generating
[ed25519](https://ed25519.cr.yp.to/) keys for signing and verification

the version of a key you use to wish to generate a signature, ciphertext, or
HMAC. This can be controlled by the `min_encryption_version` key
configuration property.
* **Replication Primary Discovery (Enterprise)**: Replication primaries will now advertise
the addresses of their local HA cluster members to replication secondaries.
This helps recovery if the primary active node goes down and neither service
discovery nor load balancers are in use to steer clients.
