Official release of FlexNet Inventory Agent 25.2.0

We are pleased to announce the release of the FlexNet Inventory Agent 25.2.0.

Release Date: EU/AP: 2026-02-18, NA: 2026-02-25

This release includes:

• Containerd support in imgtrack
• Fix for Windows FlexNet Inventory Agent crash during software process scan
• Fix for incorrect permissions on temporary storage directories created by fnms-podman-monitor
• Fix for skipping Podman container inventory if storage directory does not exist
• Fix for agent hang when collecting disk space from network filesystems
• Fix for agent hang during logical device space calculation
• Fix for Kubernetes image details not appearing in All Containers view
• Fix for ndschedag executing flxconfig using an incorrect path
• Fix for MachineType reporting on macOS arm64 virtual instances
• Bundled software version updated

Customer Impact:

• Previously, Flexera's Kubernetes agent did not support collecting inventory from environments using the containerd container runtime. Now, the imgtrack tool used with the Kubernetes agent has been enhanced to support containerd, enabling comprehensive inventory collection from environments using this widely adopted container runtime. This enhancement provides greater compatibility and improved visibility for containerized workloads.
• Previously, the agent could crash when scanning for software processes on certain Windows systems. This release resolves this issue.
• Previously, the fnms-podman-monitor created temporary storage directories with incorrect permissions, allowing world-writable access without a sticky bit set. This release resolves this issue by ensuring the correct permissions are enforced on these directories.
• Previously, inventory gathering for Podman containers could be skipped if the expected storage directory did not exist, resulting in incomplete inventory data. This release resolves this issue.
• Previously, collecting disk space information from certain network filesystems could cause the FlexNet Inventory Agent to hang during inventory collection. This release resolves this issue by excluding network filesystems from the disk space calculation.
• Previously, only the call to the filesystem was implemented with a timeout, so the agent could still hang when calculating the disk space of a network filesystem. This release resolves this issue by adding a timeout to the disk space calculation and improving logging for troubleshooting.
• Previously, Kubernetes image details gathered by the Lightweight Kubernetes agent might not appear in the All Containers view if certain image details were missing from the node status. This release resolves this issue.
• Previously, the agent could attempt to execute flxconfig using an incorrect path if installed on the IT Asset Management application server, resulting in errors. This release resolves this issue.
• Previously, inventory agents running on macOS arm64 virtual instances reported the MachineType as "physical" instead of "virtual." This release resolves this issue by correctly identifying and reporting the MachineType for virtual instances.
• The http://github.com/sigstore/fulcio, http://github.com/containernetworking/plugins, Go and libcurl third party libraries bundled with the FlexNet Inventory Agent have been updated in this release to address security vulnerabilities.
