Chapter 5. MTA 6.2.0
5.1. New features
This section describes the new features of the Migration Toolkit for Applications (MTA) 6.2.0.
Integration with JIRA
The integration of Migration Toolkit for Applications with Jira allows you to track and manage the whole migration process. To introduce changes to the applications in the portfolio, you can create issues in Jira and assign them to developers.
For more information, see Creating and configuring a Jira connection.
Migration Waves management
A migration wave is a small collection of workloads that deliver business value. MTA’s Migration Wave groups applications to be migrated on a specified schedule.
In addition, a migration wave enables you to export a list of the wave’s applications to the Jira issue management system. This automatically creates a separate Jira issue for each application of the migration wave for tracking.
For more information, see Creating migration waves and Creating Jira issues for a migration wave.
OpenShift Monitoring integration
MTA integrates with OpenShift Monitoring, which allows users to consume metrics from their MTA installation.
5.2. Known issues
MTA version 6.2.0 has the following issues.
CVE-2023-44487: Multiple HTTP/2 enabled web servers are vulnerable to a DDoS attack (Rapid Reset Attack)
A flaw has been found in handling multiplexed streams in the HTTP/2 protocol. The HTTP/2 protocol allows a denial of service (server resource consumption) because request cancellation can be reset multiple streams quickly. The server has to set up and tear down the streams while not hitting any server-side limit for the maximum number of active streams per connection, which resulted in a denial of service due to server resource consumption.
The following issues have been listed under this issue:
To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTA 6.2.1 or later.
For more details, see CVE-2023-44487 (Rapid Reset Attack)
CVE-2023-39325: Multiple HTTP/2 enabled web servers are vulnerable to a DDoS attack (Rapid Reset Attack in the Go language packages)
The HTTP/2 protocol is susceptible to a denial of service attack because request cancellation can reset multiple streams quickly. The server has to set up and tear down the streams while not hitting any server-side limit for the maximum number of active streams per connection. This results in a denial of service due to server resource consumption.
The following issues have been listed under this issue:
To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTA 6.2.1 or later.

Re-enabling Keycloak breaks MTA
Keycloak is enabled by default. If you disable and then re-enable Keycloak, you cannot perform any actions in the MTA web console after logging in again.
This error is caused as the credential-mta-rhsso
secret is updated when auth/Keycloak
is disabled and re-enabled.
The suggested workaround is to restore the old password in the credential-mta-rhsso
secret, after re-enabling auth
. MTA-1152
Analysis fails when fetching rules from a repository with a folder that contains spaces in its name
When fetching custom rules from a repository during an analysis, if the Root path

Update notifications are disabled for Application, Job functions, and Business services
Update notifications are disabled for Application, Job function and Business services, as a result, no notifications are displayed. MTA-1024

False 'not connected' status for new Jira instance
