The Luna Cloud HSM client bundle is updated to include the 10.8.0 Universal Client. Users are encouraged to upgrade to this latest client version and ensure it is supported in accordance with the Universal Client Supported Versions with Luna Cloud HSM table.

See Upgrade Client for more information about upgrading your client.

Changed 

The `AuthTokenConfigURI` parameter in the Chrystoki.conf and crystoki.ini configuration file is updated to directly reference the updated endpoint that comes as the result of the migration to the One Welcome Identity Platform.

Client version 10.8.0 will be required for hybrid HA group operations between Luna Network HSM and Luna Cloud HSM when the Luna Cloud HSM service is upgraded to FW 3.0.

Bugs fixed 

Resolved an issue in the 10.7.2 client where the command cmu verifyhsm fails. 

Resolved an issue with previous versions of the support tool "lch-support-linux-64bit" and "lch-support-win-64bit" that generated false failures as a result of differences with the One Welcome Identity Platform. 

Firmware 3.0 will be released from Thales Data Protection on Demand for Luna Cloud HSM services in two stages.

The first release of Firmware 3.0 will be available by the end of the second half of 2025 and will be a non-FIPS release.

The second release of Firmware 3.0 will be available by the end of the second half of 2026 and will be a FIPS certified release.

See Firmware 3.0 CRN for more information about the new features and enhancements for firmware 3.0. Due to new requirements in the FIPS 140-3 certification there are numerous changes incorporated with this release. 

Added 

Hybrid with Luna On-Prem

-> After upgrading to FW 3.0, Hybrid HA operations with a Luna Network HSM will require Luna Client UC10.8.0 or higher. Using a client version prior to 10.8.0 will result in CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_SUPPORTED returned when attempting to login to a Hybrid HA group.   

Deprecation of CPv1 Cloning

-> CPv1 has been removed from FIPS firmware support as it is no longer compliant with 140-3. As this only affects FIPS mode, all affected users should use CPv4 or transition service to non-FIPS mode.

ECC Curves

-> The user can now update the ECC curves without disabling the policy on FW upgrade if the module is configured in ‘FIPS mode’.

Changes due to FIPS 140-3 Certification

-> All pre-hashed verify operations will be blocked.

-> RSA-based key transport schemes that use only PKCS#1-v1.5 padding are disallowed, notably the mechanism CKM_RSA_PKCS for encrypt/decrypt/wrap/unwrap. Other mechanisms might now prohibit forward operations (new encryption or signing or wrapping,) while continuing to permit others (decrypt/unwrap) to support legacy situations. 

-> Signature creation for Curve448 and Curve25519 (ECDH) are blocked.

-> Cloning encryption is now ECC-based (formerly RSA).

-> EFP/EFT is now mandated at Level 3 for FIPS 140-3. 

-> New restrictions have been added to some mechanisms when the HSM is in FIPS mode. (See Firmware 3.0 CRN  for complete list.)

Error Messages

The following error messages are appearing when "partition showinfo" is run in lunacm:
0x82 (CKR_OBJECT_HANDLE_INVALID)
SMK OUIDs are not available
These errors are appearing in FW 3.0 however it does not affect the performance of the release. This has not appeared in previous FW releases.

Thales Data Protection Demand has updated the Identity Provider (IDP) used in the DPoD platform to Thales OneWelcome Identity Platform in the Europe region. The North America region was migrated on February 22nd, 2025. 

This update enables the platform to provide modern authentication options to users while simplifying logins for users that manage multiple tenants on the platform. Feature updates include: 

• Improved login flow 
• Improved registration flow 
• Improved user account management flows 
• Added method to switch between tenants 
• Removed vanity URLs from tenants 
• Removed vanity service provider registration pages 

North America users can now access DPoD through the login portal at https://welcome.dpondemand.io. You will need to register a new MFA token on the initial login.  

We recommend that all Luna Cloud HSM users download a new client to ensure continued connection and performance following the migration. For more information see Upgrade Client. If you have additional questions about the migration see the DPoD IDP Migration FAQ. 

Please be aware of the following known issue when using the new login portal: 

Issue: During the login process TOTP authentication can fail and the error message: "Service temporarily unavailable, please try again later" displays.  
Workaround: Click Go back in the user interface and reenter the TOTP or enter a new TOTP.

Thales is changing the Identity Provider (IDP) used in the DPoD platform to Thales OneWelcome Identity Platform. This enables the platform to provide modern authentication options to users as well as simplifying logins for users that manage multiple tenants on the platform.

Thales will migrate each region per the schedule below.

• North America: February 22, 2025
• Europe: March 8, 2025

A maintenance window with exact timing for the migrations and service impacts will be shared through the DPoD Status Page. We recommend subscribing to the status page to be notified of any updates or schedule changes.

After the migration DPoD will be accessible through the new login URL - https://welcome.dpondemand.io, and users will receive instructions to register a new MFA OTP with their device on their first login.

If you have additional questions regarding the IDP migration to One Welcome, please consult the DPoD IDP Migration FAQ on thalesdocs.com. 

Early in 2025 Thales Data Protection on Demand (DPoD) will be changing the Identity Provider (IDP) used in the DPoD platform to Thales OneWelcome. New Certificate authority CRLs and OCSPs will be added.  

For more information about the IDP migration see the DPoD IDP Migration FAQ.

Early in 2025 Thales Data Protection on Demand (DPoD) will be changing the Identity Provider (IDP) used in the DPoD platform to Thales OneWelcome. To ensure continued network connectivity between your Luna Cloud HSM client and the service partition please ensure that you update your include lists to allow the Thales OneWelcome fully qualified domain names. The Luna Cloud HSM data centers are configured with floating IP addresses and as a result of this configuration we do not support using static IP addresses or hardcoded IP addresses to access the services. 

For more information about the IDP migration see the DPoD IDP Migration FAQ. For more information about configuring and troubleshooting your client connection see Client Network Connectivity and Troubleshooting the Client Connection.

Plugin version 2.5.0 with the HSM client 10.7.2 is now available for download from Thales Data Protection on Demand for Luna Cloud HSM services.

See Upgrade Client for more information about upgrading your client.

Users are encouraged to upgrade to this latest client version and ensure it is supported in accordance with the Universal Client Supported Versions with Luna Cloud HSM table.

Added 

Luna client uses the existing config file

Customers can use the client without having to configure the "ChrystokiConfigurationPath" environment variable first.

Grouping startup for P11 commands in the plugin

The client startup time was very slow. To address this issue we now group the P11 commands together and send them as one to reduce the turnaround time.

Changed

- Using 10.7.2 or higher, users are no longer required to run setenv to configure the client to connect to the Luna Cloud HSM Service. However, setenv may still be used to configure the client for hybrid use cases or integrations where setting the ChrystokiConfigurationPath is required.
Please see Unpack the client for more information.

- Users can connect to a Luna Cloud HSM service by running the Luna Client in a docker container.
Please see Create a Docker Container to Access a Luna Cloud HSM Service for more information.

- A number of enhancements has been added to the LCH support tool. 
The support tool now creates an output file containing additional logging generated by running lunacm. It will also tell you the file was created, its name and the amount of time taken to run each test.
Please see Client connectivity support tool for more information.

Thales Data Protection on Demand (DPoD) audit logs for Luna Cloud HSM and CipherTrust Data Security Platform as a Service (CDSPaaS) service instances are now available through the tenant user interface. You can generate, review, and download audit logs for services in your tenant using your tenants Logs page. For more information about viewing and downloading audit logs through the tenant user interface see Audit Logging.
