Windows Agent 2.0.122 - Release Notes
The new Windows Agent v2.0.122 introduces the following improvements:
Windows Server 2012 Installation Fix
:An issue that prevented installation of the previous MSI version on Windows Server 2012 builds has been resolved. The agent can now be successfully installed on this platform.
Improved DNS Response Handling
Some DNS caching servers (commonly found in certain cable and DSL modems) return DNS responses in a non-compliant format when an OPT field is present. Instead of placing the answer section immediately after the query section, they append OPT records first, followed by the actual answer.
With this update, the DefensX Agent now detects and correctly parses these malformed responses, ensuring reliable DNS resolution even in such environments.
Enhanced WFP Driver Protection
A rare issue (impacting approximately 1 in 140,000 agents) could occur in environments with multiple WFP-based drivers. If a previous driver shutdown was not completed properly, it could cause instability during the shutdown of subsequent drivers.
The new version includes an additional protection mechanism to prevent this. Driver shutdown operations will now complete safely, regardless of other drivers’ behavior.
