Release Notes / Changelog

T-Pot 24.04.1 brings significant updates and exciting new honeypot additions, especially the LLM-based honeypots Beelzebub and Galah!

New Features

Beelzebub (SSH) and Galah (HTTP) are the first LLM-based honeypots included in T-Pot (requires Ollama installation or a ChatGPT subscription).
Go-Pot a HTTP tarpit designed to maximize bot misery by slowly feeding them an infinite stream of fake secrets.
Honeyaml a configurable API server honeypot even supporting JWT-based HTTP bearer/token authentication.
H0neytr4p a HTTP/S honeypot capable of emulating vulnerabilities using configurable traps.
Miniprint a medium-interaction printer honeypot.

Honeypots were updated to their latest pushed code and / or releases.
Editions have been re-introduced. You can now additionally choose to install T-Pot as Mini, LLM and Tarpit edition.
Attack Map has been updated to 2.2.6 including support for all new honeypots.
Elastic Stack has been upgrade to 8.16.1.
Cyberchef has been updated to the latest release.
Elasticvue has been updated to 1.1.0.
Suricata has been updated to 7.0.7, now supporting JA4 hashes.
Most honeypots now use PyInstaller (for Python) and Scratch (for Go) to minimize Docker image sizes.
All new honeypots have been integrated with Kibana, featuring dedicated dashboards and visualizations.
Github Container Registry is now the default container registry for the T-Pot configuration file .env.
Compatibility tested with Alma 9.5, Fedora 41, Rocky 9.5, and Ubuntu 24.04.1, with updated supported ISO links.
Docker images now use Alpine 3.20 or Scratch wherever possible.
Updates for 24.04.1 images will be provided continuously through Docker image updates.
Ddospot has been moved from the Hive / Sensor installation to the Tarpit installation.

The container no longer runs in host mode, requiring changes to the docker-compose.yml and related services.
To avoid confusion and downtime, the 24.04.1 tag for Docker images has been introduced.
Important: Actively update T-Pot as described in the README.
Deprecation Notice: The 24.04 tagged images will no longer be maintained and will be removed by 2025-01-31.

Capture filters have been updated to exclude broadcast, multicast, NetBIOS, IGMP, and MDNS traffic.
