Affecting all Beats

  • Selecting full in ssl.verification_mode option will not treat CommonName field in x509 certificates as a hostname when Subject Alternative Name is not present from v8.0. Please update your certificates so it contains at least one DNSName instead of relying on CommonName in the new major version of Beats.
