What's New in Hydra 2.5.0

Release Date: May, 28, 2026

Features

  • The Windows 365 Licenses page has been added to give administrators a read-only view into Microsoft 365 licensing for their tenant(s)

Changes/Improvements

  • All Cloud PC settings are now available on the Windows 365 > Cloud PC settings tab. These settings include User settings, Cloud PC configurations, and Windows App settings

  • The Host Pools table view now uses the generic table component for a consistent experience across Hydra

  • Updated the drag-and-drop area for reordering rows in the Autoscaling, Script Schedules, and Session Timeout tables

  • Enabled support for copying the Hydra proxy image to a different destination region

Security

  • Added missing authentication controls for three API endpoints identified during penetration testing

  • Corrected site-wide reflected XSS in the Hydra HTTP message parameter identified during penetration testing

  • Enhanced host security through stricter permissions on monitoring components used by Hydra

Bug Fixes

  • The Agent tools visual doesn’t render correctly in the All Cloud PCs view

  • The Inactive state for Network Connections doesn’t function correctly

  • Updating a Workspace friendly name unlinks associated App Groups

  • Hydra instance restart and update doesn’t work for Gov cloud customers
