Authelia v4.39.16 released on 14-03-2026

Authelia v4.39.16 is out now. It’s a small patch release of bug fixes and developer tooling tweaks that addresses authentication, middleware, OIDC and web UI edge cases so administrators and self-hosters see more reliable logins and 2FA flows.
See the release on Authelia’s GitHub for the full notes and the updated Docker images.
What’s in this release
- Authentication fixes: corrected an overly strict discovery check and excessive LDAP filter escaping that could block valid authentication flows.
- Web UI and 2FA stability: resolved a UI stuck state when enrolling 2FA so users can complete setup reliably.
- OIDC and developer tooling: ensured JWT/profile claims policies are properly hydrated for OIDC flows; developer improvements include a change to the max retries default, disabling npm scripts in the Docker dev build, ignoring node_modules in Vite watchers and improved root directory detection.
Upgrade notes
- No breaking changes are reported, but review the changed max retries default in your configuration and adjust it if required.
- Docker images for this release are available: docker pull authelia/authelia:4.39.16 and docker pull ghcr.io/authelia/authelia:4.39.16. If you must roll back, use your previous image and restart your service.
