Note
For deployments with a dedicated database backend, i.e. Microsoft SQL Server and PostgreSQL, the correct collation needs to be chosen to ensure correct behaviour with non-ASCII characters
Improvements
A link to the REST API documentation has been added to the welcome page of Micetro
Accessibility in the Web UI improved for lowest screen resolution by making dialogs take the whole screen when opened
Action buttons names changed: Failover Management -> Manage Failover and Access -> Manage Access
Added checks to the API to ensure that the TXT record is valid (i.e. it doesn’t contain new lines), if they are not valid then an exception is thrown
Added flag –skip-arrange to the installer for the agents. Since 11.0 the DNS agent for BIND does not need to arrange the configuration files. By using this flag when installing the original configuration files will not be changed
Added support for Bearer session token authorization in the API, and changed the REST API documentation to default to that instead of Basic Auth. Added micetro/sessions HTTP POST endpoint in REST API to create a session token for this purpose
“Delete range” command is now hidden for the root ranges, as it is impossible to delete them
Double-clicking a DNS Service in the Web UI now takes the user to its zone. Also, double-clicking a DHCP Service now takes the user to its scopes

Solved multiple issues related to handling of MARS on database connections in Microsoft SQL Server
Users are not prompted with an invalid session error anymore when the landing page is set to DNS
Deprecation Announcements
Note
When a feature is deprecated that means this will be the last version where a feature is officially supported. A feature might continue to work in future versions as long as the code is present within Micetro but there are no guarantees for that as the code is not officially maintained.
CentOS is no longer supported by Micetro as this operating system was deprecated by Red Hat on 30 June 2024, see more information here.
RHEL 6 support has now been deprecated in Micetro because it was out of maintenance support by Red Hat on 30 November 2020 according to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux support lifecycle page. The same applies to RHEL 7 which was out of maintenance support on 30 June 2024.
Suse Enterprise Linux 11 has been deprecated in Micetro as this operating system is not supported by the vendor as of 31st of March 2019, see more information here.
Unbound support has been deprecated. This support was added originally because Unbound was used in the Men & Mice caching appliances but those were deprecated as part of introducing MDDS support in version 11.0 (which does not use Unbound) so it is not necessary to support Unbound anymore in Micetro.
Support for Kea version 2.2 as a service that Micetro can overlay is deprecated due to reaching end-of-life status and no longer being supported by ISC. See the roadmap for ISC Kea here.
Support for Microsoft SQL Server 2014 is deprecated as this databases reached end of support on July 9, 2024. For more information on Microsoft SQL Server roadmap, see here.
Breaking changes
By default, it’s no longer possible to login to other Central servers than the default Central server through the Web Interface or the API. When Web Interface and Central are on the same server, the server field is no longer shown when logging in.
Default character encoding on API requests has now been changed to UTF-8 from Latin1 if no charset is defined in the Content-Type HTTP header
11.0.4
September 16, 2024
Bug Fixes
Resolved a problem that prevented users from logging into the Micetro Web Interface following an upgrade to a new license key version when the default home page was configured to the DNS or IPAM view.
Fixed an issue where the DNS server list (DHCP option 6 on MS DHCP) in the Micetro Web Interface was previously sorting by IP address instead of the user-defined order. The order of DNS servers in DHCP option 6 is now preserved in the Web Interface.
Resolved an issue where field validation failed during DHCP scope conversion:
Fixed an issue where unintended user input in the filter field caused Central to stop.
Resolved a problem where a field name in filters would be matched to a column even if it was only a partial match.
Fixed a regression that allowed users to modify the names and descriptions of built-in groups.
Fixed the import of TXT records that contain semicolons.
The
AddDHCPReservation
function no longer supports referencing reservations by name for Kea.Change requests can now reference reservations by address, in addition to name. For ISC reservations with multiple addresses, the system will now verify if any of the addresses match.
11.0.3
July 23, 2024
Improvements
- BIND has been upgraded to v9.16.50 (along with patches from ISC) on the Micetro appliances to address the following security vulnerabilities:
CVE-2024-0760: A flood of DNS messages over TCP may make the server unstable
CVE-2024-1737: BIND’s database will be slow if a very large number of RRs exist at the same name
CVE-2024-1975: SIG(0) can be used to exhaust CPU resources
CVE-2024-4076: Assertion failure when serving both stale cache data and authoritative zone content
Please note that when updating the Micetro appliances it is necessary to restart them for the change to take full effect, this usually takes about 20-30 seconds.
MDDS appliances have also been updated to include a BIND version that contains those security fixes, this will result in a restart of the BIND service which will only take few seconds
11.0.2
July 8, 2024
Improvements
Improved concurrency safety with GetNextFreeAddress when used with the temporaryClaimTime parameter.
Bug Fixes
Fixed a problem where a minor version of MDDS was not detected correctly.
Improved concurrency safety with GetNextFreeAddress when used in conjunction with the temporaryClaimTime parameter.
Fixed a problem with the calculation of the usage and the display of the leases in the scopes on certain MS DHCP servers.
Fixed an issue where Swagger documentation did not allow selecting an HTTPS connection for REST calls. The default server in Open API no longer includes a protocol, ensuring that REST documentation works seamlessly for both HTTP and HTTPS connections.
Fixed an issue where DHCP Synchronization would fail because the DHCP scope change listener could not be found. The reliability of DHCP synchronization for Microsoft DHCP servers has been enhanced.
Fixed an issue where downloading updates through a proxy failed unless the CONNECT verb was allowed for regular HTTP traffic. We’ve also enabled checking for and downloading updates via HTTPS when a web proxy server is configured.
11.0.1
May 15, 2024
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue with Azure setups containing more than 1000 zones. Previously, Micetro would fail reading in zones from Azure if the number of zones exceeded 1000.
Fixed an issue where explicit session removals could lead to a potential out-of-memory condition in the web service.
Fixed an issue where rolling back changes when adding zones to xDNS failed, resulting in the deletion of the zones.
Fixed an issue where adding a DNS server and simultaneously attempting to add a zone within the same session led to intermittent failures.
Fixed an issue in ISC failover where the split between failover peers would change when adding a scope from the secondary server to a failover relationship.
Fixed a bug that affected the interpretation of Azure DNS records containing hostname data, leading to inaccuracies in record processing.
11.0.0
March 14, 2024

Deprecation Announcements
We’ve launched the new Micetro DNS/DHCP server (MDDS) appliance, marking a transition from the old Men&Mice virtual appliance platform. If you’re using the Men&Mice virtual appliance and considering an upgrade to Micetro 11.0, please reach out to our support team at support@bluecatnetworks.com for assistance with migrating smoothly to the new platform. It’s important to note that all customers will need to transition to the new appliance platform eventually, so we highly recommend making this change in the upgrade to version 11.0.
OpenStack support is deprecated as the versions currently supported in Micetro have reached end-of-life status.
Dyn support is deprecated as it is no longer supported by Oracle, with the target retirement date being May 31, 2023. For more information, see here.
Support for BIND versions 9.16 and earlier is deprecated, as these versions have been declared as end-of-life by ISC in Q1 2024. The same applies to the subscriber edition.
Support for ISC DHCP versions 4.4.0 and earlier is deprecated. However, versions 4.4.1 and later will continue to be supported by Micetro, despite ISC dropping support for ISC DHCP as a whole in December 2022. This is because ISC DHCP is still widely used by Micetro customers and will likely continue to be so for some time.
Support for Kea version 2.0 as a service that Micetro can overlay is deprecated due to reaching end-of-life status and no longer being supported by ISC. See the roadmap for ISC Kea here. It should be noted that support for older versions of Kea is deprecated as well.
Support for Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 is deprecated because Microsoft announced end of support on October 10, 2023. This applies both to hosting the Micetro solution itself and as a DNS/DHCP server that Micetro can overlay.
Support for Microsoft SQL Server 2012 and older versions is deprecated as these databases reached end of support on July 12, 2022. For more information on Microsoft SQL Server roadmap, see here.
Support for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is deprecated as this version reached end of support in Q1 2024 according to the Ubuntu release cycle.
PostgreSQL 11 is also deprecated as this database was out of support November 9 2023. For more information on the PostgreSQL roadmap see here
Python 3.7 has been deprecated in Micetro due to its end of life in June 2023, according to the python release cycle. All Python scripts, including those used in scheduled scripts or MFA (multifactor authentication), will need to be updated accordingly.
10.5.8
June 20, 2024
Improvements
Improved functionality to automatically detect if an AWS account in a multi-account setup has been granted DNS access in Micetro.
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue where rolling back changes when adding zones to xDNS failed, resulting in the deletion of the zones.
10.5.7
February 13, 2024
Improvements
BIND has been upgraded to v9.16.47 on the Micetro appliance to address the following security vulnerabilities:
CVE-2023-4408: Parsing large DNS messages may cause excessive CPU load.
CVE-2023-5517: Querying RFC 1918 reverse zones may cause an assertion failure when “nxdomain-redirect” is enabled.
CVE-2023-5679: Enabling both DNS64 and serve-stale may cause an assertion failure during recursive resolution.
CVE-2023-6516: Specific recursive query patterns may lead to an out-of-memory condition.

CVE-2023-50868: High CPU consumption in DNSSEC validator.
10.5.6
January 31, 2024
Bug Fixes
Resolved an issue where the creation and deletion of A records were wrongly logged twice in event history.
Fixed an issue that led to the web service crashing when filter parameters were sent without the required filter keyword.
Resolved an issue in ISC DHCP failover scopes, where leases marked as “released” were not correctly recognized as free.
Fixed an issue where the system encountered difficulty in locating the
PythonExecutablePath
when it contained spaces.Fixed an issue where users who selected IPAM as their default landing page would sometimes receive an invalid session error upon logging in.
10.5.5
December 5, 2023
Known Issues
Issue: Micetro Unable to Locate Python Executable with Spaces in Path
Micetro experiences difficulty locating the Python executable when the PythonExecutablePath
preference points to a path that contains spaces, impacting external and LDAP authentication configurations.
Workarounds:
Add the Python path to the
PATH
environment variable in Windows.
-OR-
Encase the
PythonExecutablePath
preference value with quotation marks on either side. Example:<PythonExecutablePath value=""C:\Path with spaces\python.exe""/>
Improvements
Enhanced Session ID Algorithm: We’ve updated the algorithm for generating session IDs. It now uses non-deterministic random values that are automatically seeded from the underlying OS, improving security and unpredictability. This improvement addresses the security vulnerability outlined in CVE-2023-4080.
Script Name Fields: The script name fields (
) now only accept script names and validate the existence of the script in a folder named “scripts” under Central’s data folder. Default paths are “C:\ProgramData\Men and Mice\Central\scripts” on Windows and /var/mmsuite/mmcentral/scripts on Linux. This improvement addresses the security vulnerability outlined in CVE-2023-4079.While existing values for script names will continue to function, updating the value requires moving referenced scripts to the scripts folder before they can be selected in the UI.
The system setting “Folder for scripts to be run from the API” (RunCommandsFromDirectory) has been deprecated. The current value remains functional but cannot be modified, only cleared. The default value is the scripts folder mentioned above. Scripts invoked through the RunCommand API should also be moved to the scripts folder.
The ‘parameters’ argument to the RunCommand API has been deprecated.
While these changes are not breaking, administrators are advised to take necessary actions, as all script invocations are expected to be limited to the scripts folder in a future major release.
Bug Fixes
Resolved an issue where SNMP profiles were not displayed in the table when the number of profiles exceeded a specific threshold.
Fixed an issue where records in recently promoted AuthServe zones could not be edited.
Addressed an error where the importing of host records for IP addresses would fail.
Resolved slowness issues when deleting a zone with a few records from AuthServe. Improved performance when deleting a zone on a Central with a PostgreSQL database.
Various bug fixes and improvements.
