TrueNAS 12.0-BETA2.1 is a hotpatch release to fix a ZFS permissions issue that affects the base FreeBSD OS (NAS-107270). 12.0-BETA2 users are encouraged to update to BETA2.1 as soon as possible.
CVE-2020-24716 and CVE-2020-24717

iXsystems is pleased to announce the general availability of TrueNAS 12.0-BETA2! This is the second beta version of the unified FreeNAS and TrueNAS release, renamed to TrueNAS CORE and TrueNAS Enterprise, respectively. More than 175 bugs have been fixed in this release, representing a significant step toward the full TrueNAS 12.0-Release.
The TrueNAS 12.0 release is a major new update to the TrueNAS family of storage products. TrueNAS CORE is the successor to FreeNAS, which is still fully open-source and offering the same functionality and more features than ever before. Included in version 12 are major changes to ZFS filesystem, bringing all the features of ZFS on Linux (ZoL) into the upcoming OpenZFS 2.0 release. Additionally, version 12 includes these major changes:
- ZFS Native Crypto - Per dataset encryption and support for encrypted replication to untrusted targets.
- 2 Factor Authentication - Allows using Applications such as “Google Authenticator” to provide an extra level of security before logging into the UI or SSH access.
- KMIP Support - TrueNAS Enterprise now adds the ability to interface with KMIP servers for the storage and retrieval of passwords and encryption keys.
- Performance Improvements - Virtually every area of the platform has been updated and includes some major performance improvements, including SMB, iSCSI, ZFS and more.
- API Keys - All of TrueNAS can be configured with TrueNAS API v2.0, and now supports keys for remote access. TrueNAS API v1.0 is no longer supported.
- Fusion Pools - Allows creating pools with all-flash vdevs that store metadata and small-block IO. This provides flash-like performance on all metadata operations, but with the cost effectiveness of spinning disk for storage blocks.
- VPN Support - Support for TrueNAS acting as both an OpenVPN Server and Client, depending on your VPN needs.
These major changes are also paired with numerous other bug fixes and quality-of-life type improvements to the UI and APIs for users. We’ve also revamped our Documentation, focusing more content on how to accomplish specific tasks, reducing the learning curve and time normally spent on deploying TrueNAS in a variety of storage environments.

| Key | Summary | Workaround |
|---|---|---|
| NAS-106959 | Activating LZ4 compression on a previously unencrypted storage pool that was created in a nightly build then upgraded to BETA1 can fail. | When selecting the compression algorithm, also open the Advanced Options and set ACL Mode to Passthrough. |
| NAS-107151 | Replication fails between legacy TrueNAS 9.10 systems and 12.0-BETA1 systems. | Due to numerous improvements in the replication engine and ZFS, FreeNAS/TrueNAS 9.10 systems (or earlier) can no longer replicate to or from TrueNAS 12.0. Update the legacy TrueNAS system to FreeNAS/TrueNAS 11.3 or newer. |
