This release brings exciting new capabilities, including the capture feature, significant performance improvements, and important bug fixes that enhance Falco's capabilities. During this release cycle, we merged: 52 PRs on Falco, including 23 release note-worthy changes 110 PRs on Falco libs, including 47 release note-worthy changes 102 PRs on Falco drivers, including 29 release note-worthy changes We upgraded libs to version 0.22.1 and drivers to v9.0.0+driver. Thank you to our maintainers and contributors. This would not have been possible without your support and dedication! To learn everything about the changes, read on! What's new? TL;DR Key features: Capture recording feature; Drop enter initiative for performance; Plugin event schema validation; Thread table auto-purging configuration; Static fields; Key fixes: Fix thread table memory leak when parsing vfork (or equivalent clone/clone3 with CLONE_VFORK) exit from the caller process; Enable handling of multiple actions configured with syscall_event_drops.actions; Disable dry-run restarts when Falco runs with config-watching disabled; Fix abseil-cpp for Alpine build; Fix detection sandbox containers for CRI and containerd runtimes (container plugin); Stability improvements for container plugin and static linking of libgcc/libstdc++ for legacy compatibility; This release also comes with breaking changes that you should be aware of before upgrading. Major features and improvements The 0.42.0 release contains a new capture feature and significant performance improvements. Here is a list of the key new capabilities. Capture recording feature Falco 0.42.0 introduces the new capture recording feature, now available at sandbox maturity. This capability allows Falco to generate .scap files whenever a detection rule is triggered automatically. Each capture contains a detailed trace of system calls around the event, providing forensic-level
