<p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.rstudio.com/products/shiny/shiny-server/" target="_blank">Shiny Server 1.5.7.907 and Shiny Server Pro 1.5.7.954 are now available.</a></p>
<p>Highlights for this release are a major-version Node upgrade, support for HTTP gzip/deflate compression and (optionally) <a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_cookies" target="_blank">secure cookies</a>, and numerous bug fixes. We’ve also dropped support for some Linux distro versions that have reached their end of life.</p>
<h3>Shiny Server 1.5.7.907</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Upgrade to Node v8.10.0.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Dropped support for Ubuntu 12.04 and SLES 11.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Support gzip/deflate compression for HTTP responses. You can disable this if<br>
necessary with the directive “http_allow_compression no;” at the top level<br>
of shiny-server.conf.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Don’t color log output if stdout is not a terminal.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Shiny Server Pro 1.5.7.954</h3>
<p>The above changes, plus:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Rename CSRF token cookie from XSRF-TOKEN to SSP-CSRF, so as not to conflict<br>
with other Angular apps being served from the same host.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Fix bug where dashboard could show incorrect or even negative values from RAM<br>
usage.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Fix bugs retrieving LDAP/Active Directory groups when group_filter contains<br>
an extensible match operator (which is the default for auth_active_dir).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Fix bug where server could crash with “render is not defined”.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Add <code>secure_cookies always;</code> directive, which adds the HTTP cookie flag<br>
“secure” to our session cookies. Note that this should only be used if all<br>
authenticated apps and the admin dashboard are ONLY accessible via https,<br>
either through Shiny Server Pro’s built-in TLS support or via a proxy.</p>
</li>
</ul>
