Collabora Online Controller 1.1.7
Released on 3 December 2025.
Bug Fixes/Improvements
- Fixed a bug where leaderElection is enabled we sometimes end up in deadlock situation where no-one is leader
Bump Go version to 1.25.5 for security fixes
Action Required

kubectl delete -n deployment && kubectl delete lease collabora-online -n- Use umbrella helm charts: 1.1.11
Collabora Online Controller 1.1.6
Released on 13 November 2025.
Features
- Fixed leader election lease duration calculation that caused leases to be created with 705032704 seconds (22 years) instead of the configured 10 seconds. This prevented proper leader failover when controller pods crashed or restarted.

Released on 15 October 2025.
Features
Internal Cluster Communication
