Upcoming end of support for U2F security keys used with Duo’s browser-based prompt
- Google has announced it will no longer support U2F in Chrome beginning in February 2022. To accommodate this change, Duo will also end support for the U2F authentication standard for security keys used with our browser-based authentication prompt. Note: U2F security keys will continue to be supported for Windows Offline Access, which does not use the browser-based authentication prompt.
- WebAuthn will become the sole supported standard for security keys used with Duo’s browser-based prompt as part of a scheduled rolling release January 13 through January 20, 2022.
- With the D229 release, Duo will also treat any newly enrolled U2F security keys as dual-enrolled to work with WebAuthn, in preparation for the upcoming end of support.
- For more information about the end of support milestone, see this Duo Knowledge Base article.

New and updated applications
Duo Mobile version 4.3.0 for Android
- Miscellaneous bug fixes and behind-the-scenes improvements.
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue in which it appeared possible via the Admin API to assign the role of Owner to an administrator restricted by an administrative unit. Owners are prevented from being part of administrative units. Attempting to assign the role of Owner to an admin who is part of an administrative unit will now return an error. To complete the role change, first remove the administrator from all administrative units and then set
restricted_by_admin_units
to false
.
- Fixed a bug in which SMS requested when logging in via the Duo Universal Prompt contained more than one passcode if the Admin Panel was configured to send a batch of passcodes (a feature supported in the traditional Duo Prompt). The new prompt does not allow the use of an already-sent code.
