Release Notes for Open-AudIT v6.0.3

Release Notes for Open-AudIT v6.0.3

Released 2026-05-14

We are releasing Open-AudIT 6.0.3 for Windows as a minor release for bugs and improvements.

The new items are installed user browser extensions (assuming you’re auditing using Administrator for Windows or sudo/root for MacOS), and MS Entra for authentication.

We have also enabled a basic discovery scan that will be executed if Nmap is not detected.

Our Windows installer is now signed with our FirstWave certificate. Initial tests on Windows Server do not trigger a warning, however initial testing on Windows 11 do still trigger a warning. To get around this, we have submitted the file for Microsoft for review. It is unknown how long this will take to make it’s way to client machines (the updated “this file is OK” detail).
