  • The mask_rcnn function has been removed because it was using python3.6. In new version of Nuclio python3.6 is no longer supported. Nuclio officially recommends using python3.9.

  • More comprehensive SSRF mitigations were implemented. Previously, on task creation it was prohibited to specify remote data URLs with hosts that resolved to IP addresses in the private ranges. Now, redirects to such URLs are also prohibited. In addition, this restriction is now also applied to webhook URLs. System administrators can allow or deny custom IP address ranges with the SMOKESCREEN_OPTS environment variable. (https://github.com/opencv/cvat/pull/6362).
