parameter creates a property “MyProperty” with the value “MyValue”. - Cross-agent handling of
///Custom
parameters improved - Linux capture: the
Perl module Compress::Zlib
andPerl module Digest::MD5

With version 8.3.13 the field “DisplayVersion” is newly introduced, furthermore the values are “converted” in each case, so that existing queries continue to work without problems and can also be filtered to e.g. “ReleaseId < 1809”.

- LOGINfo.script: Variable %Programdata% can be used in if-conditions
- Scanning of services: exit code 1077 (not run since last reboot) is no longer logged, so that the entries in the change history are omitted
