Version 4.8.0

2024/08/30

Information for Maltego CE (Community Edition) free-tier  users: 

• We are introducing a new Credit System which allows Maltego CE users to spend a free allowance of 200 Credits flexibly on any of the data integrations included in CE. Also, we are lifting a few previously imposed restrictions for CE users: CE users are now able to paste more than 50 Entities on a canvas and run Transforms on more than 50 Entities. Furthermore, CE is now allowed for commercial use and the watermark will vanish.
• To benefit from this offer, CE users will need to reconfigure their Maltego Hub item settings, including API keys.
• Custom Entities and icons will not be affected by this. Please note that internal Hub items may need to be reconfigured too.
• If you have custom configurations, we advise you to backup your configs before installing Maltego 4.8.0, alternatively, wait to install the new version until it becomes available via the auto-update feature in the 4.7.0 Client (please make sure auto-updates are enabled).

Information for Maltego Paid Plan customers: 

• If you have custom configurations, we advise that you wait to install Maltego 4.8.0 until it becomes available via the auto-update feature in the 4.7.0 Client (please  make sure auto-updates are enabled). If you prefer to upgrade and install manually, please make sure to backup your configs before installing the new version.

Please Note: Graph files saved in Maltego version 4.8.0 cannot be opened in earlier versions of Maltego Graph (Desktop) 4.7.0 or earlier. However, files from earlier version can still be opened in 4.8.0.

Added

• Maltego ID-based access for Commercial Plan users.
  • Added new Hub endpoint that uses JSON instead of XML.
  • Config files (.MTZ) exported through version 4.8.0 cannot be imported into older versions of Maltego.

• V3: Include the Transform run contextual information in the run request message.
• Show disclaimer messages for Hub items installed on the initial wizard.

Fixed

• Fixed ClassCastException (Float cannot be cast to String), that sometimes occurred when opening a graph.
• Fixed ConcurrentModificationException while iterating sets to populate run items.

Version 4.6.0

2023/12/06

Overview

The Maltego Desktop Client Release version 4.6.0 will include the introduction of Maltego ID for initial rollout to Maltego Community Edition (CE) users. Maltego ID offers a unified authentication infrastructure which will utilize web-based login, incorporate Multi Factor Authentication, and allow CE users to navigate directly to the Maltego registration and password reset form via the Desktop Client.

In addition, this release includes enhanced performance improvements for customers with multiple Entities and Transform installations – massively improving new Hub item installation, opening of new graphs and Transform context menus.

Interactive Transform prompts have been established to allow the query of additional input from the user through Transform execution for ad-hoc decision making through multiple queries.

We now support Base64 encoded properties in Maltego. Whenever a file is dragged onto a graph, the Maltego Desktop Client will automatically populate a Base64 Entity property for that file. This feature will enable users to send binary content in Base64 encoded form to the Transform Server.

Added

• As a CE user, you can now log in to Maltego using the new Maltego ID and enable two-factor authentication for additional security.
• Binaries which are dragged into Maltego are now converted to Base64 strings and attached to the Entity as dynamic properties (the file size must be under 1MB). This way you can directly send images or PDFs to Transforms without uploading them to a cloud storage. The size limit for attachments for Transform runs is 10MB.
• V3 Transforms can now dynamically request additional inputs from the user while they run.
• The Transform logs now display timestamps and notification severity for each Transform notification.
• The Maltego Desktop Client can run into issues when less than 4GB of RAM are allocated, this now prompts a warning notification when detected. Although 4GB of RAM are recommended, larger RAM will improve the Maltego Desktop Client's performance.

Improved

• The Transform search in the Machine editor now finds Transforms across all levels instead of only in the expanded sections.
• Recovering corrupted graphs works more reliably now.
• Significant improvement for the performance of Hub item installation.
• Performance improvement for opening graphs with many attachments
• Improvement for searches in the Entity palette. Searching through 10,000 Entities now takes less than 1 second.
• Performance improvement for opening graphs and the Transform Menu, especially when many Entities are installed.
• Performance improvement for PDF report generation of large graphs with the added "High Memory" option
• The Java version packaged with Windows installers has been updated to 17.0.8.1+1
• We now prefer Java 17 over Java 11 if both are available

Fixed

• Fixed issue where empty property values could cause an evaluator property to show up as property value
• V3 Transforms didn't work with OAuth. Now they do.
• List properties of type "bool" and "date" work now
• When deleting Entities and then undoing that, the Entities showed up at random locations
• V3 Transform results were merged more generously than intended. We now consider strict matching rules properly.
• A dynamic attachment property with the value "0 attachments" is no longer being added to Entities.
• Transform sets are now removed when all the Transforms they contained are uninstalled
• Fixed issue with the migration of local Transforms and Hub settings from previous Maltego versions.
• Some special characters in attachment file names cannot prevent the graph from being saved anymore
• Mac users are now shown a warning when attempting to run Maltego without Java installed
• Capitalization of Entity names will not cause duplicated Entities in the Desktop Client anymore
• Arabic text gets rendered better in PDF reports on MacOS
• Fixed issue where the Maltego Desktop Client could freeze during Transform execution when updating Transforms at the same time

Version 4.5.0

2023/08/02

Added

• Introducing Transform Protocol V3 - This marks the first step into the next generation of Maltego.

Changed

• Improved performance by loading the start page only once, reducing network usage significantly (network hog issue resolved).

• Restricted Entity drag & drop to the graph only, disallowing dragging folders from the Entity Palette.
• Popup and Key icons added for non-Hub Transform settings where they were missing.
• MTZ Entity count is now only shown on the installation of Hub items, not on refresh.
• Enhanced Date Parsing - We have made significant improvements to the parsing of date-related types. As a result, all date, datetime, and date-range properties will now be handled accurately when returned from a Transform.
