Release v1.2.0

April 30, 2026

OpenID Connect (OIDC) Support

This release adds support for OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication using Azure DevOps service connections. You can configure the service connection by providing the Qualys API URL, selecting the authentication type, and entering the required credentials, such as the client ID and Client Secret for OIDC authentication.

The integration generates and uses the authentication token automatically during pipeline execution. This enhancement enables secure authentication and centralized credential management within Azure DevOps.

Release v1.1.0

In this release,

  • We have added 'lastScanned' filter in the call to CS API to ensure that plugin fetches the latest scan result for the specified image ID.
  • With this release, the plugin can use API v1.3. With the new version of API, the plugin internally uses the SHA value of the image to call the CS API when you pass image ID or image name in the input parameter.
  • The plugin can now check before tagging the image if the sensor container is running on the host and if it is installed in the CI/CD mode.

Release v1.0.1

We fixed an issue to allow Qualys Container Security Connector for Azure DevOps to accept special characters in passwords as per the Qualys password policy.
