PACKER KUBEVIRT FIXES DEADLOCK THAT FROZE BUILDS

By RepoJournal · Filed · About HashiCorp

A critical fix in the KubeVirt plugin removes a deadlock that was leaving Packer builds stuck waiting for DataVolumes that would never bind.

The packer-plugin-kubevirt team shipped a fix that enables immediate binding for DataVolumes [1], resolving a deadlock where builds would hang indefinitely. The root cause: final image DataVolumes were created without requesting immediate binding, forcing Packer to wait for a consumer that never arrived. This is the kind of production blocker that deserves immediate attention if you're building container images on Kubernetes. In parallel, gRPC picked up a critical security patch [2] addressing HTTP/2 frame flooding attacks in the nomad-connect-examples repository, bumping the library from 1.82.0 to 1.82.1. Meanwhile, routine dependency maintenance continues across the ecosystem, with setup-go [3] migrating to ESM in net-rpc-msgpackrpc. The KubeVirt fix is your priority today.
