# Known Issues in Cortex® XDR™ Agent 7.3

## Known Issues in Cortex® XDR™ Agent 7.3

The following table describes known issues in the Cortex XDR agent 7.3 releases.

### CPATR-14741

This issue is resolved in Cortex XDR agent 7.5.1 release.

When you install the agent on MacOS, a race occurs hat could cause the Cortex XDR agent to become disabled.

### CPATR-12923

This issue is resolved in Cortex XDR agent 7.3.1 release.

If you installed the Cortex XDR agent 7.2.x or 7.3.x releases using an RPM installation package on a Linux endpoint running OpenSUSE or SUSE 15 SP2, you cannot upgrade the agent to a newer release.

Suggested workaround: Remove the Cortex XDR agent from the endpoint and then install the newer version.

### CPATR-12879

This issue is resolved in Cortex XDR agent 7.3.2 release.

A rare race condition can cause Cortex XDR to allocate Prevent licenses instead of Pro licenses.

Suggested workaround: Perform manual check-in for the agent either through the Cortex XDR management console, from the Cortex XDR agent console, or using Cytool on the endpoint.

### CPATR-12693

This issue is resolved in Cortex XDR agent 7.3.1 release.

For Linux endpoints, the Ubuntu Long Term Support (LTS) release numbers are displayed incorrectly in Cortex XDR, where digits leading zeros are missing. For example, 12.4 is displayed instead of 12.04.

### CPATR-12692

This issue is resolved in Cortex XDR agent 7.3.1 release.

The Cortex XDR agent does not automatically upload the alert data dump file, even though it is configured to do so in the Agent Settings profile.

Suggested workaround: Retrieve the alert data manually from Cortex XDR.

### CPATR-12670

This issue is resolved in Cortex XDR agent 7.3.1 release.

On Mac endpoints, if you stop and start the Cortex XDR network extension manually and then attempt to isolate the endpoint, the first isolation request fails.

Suggested workaround: In this case, perform the isolation twice from Cortex XDR, the first request fails but the second isolation request succeeds.

### CPATR-12642

For Linux operating systems that use RPM installers, if you want to upgrade a Cortex XDR agent that was installed using a Shell installation package to a Cortex XDR agent using an rpm package, you must perform the upgrade manually on the endpoint due to manual authorizations you have to enter during this specific flow.

### CPATR-12235

Cortex XDR agent 7.3 is not supported on macOS 10.12 and any upgrade attempts should fail. If you attempt to upgrade a 7.2, 7.2.1, or 7.2.2 agent to 7.3, the upgrade action halts In Progress status.

Suggested workaround: Reboot the endpoint and receive Failed status.

For complete compatibility information, refer to the Compatibility Matrix.

### CPATR-12163

In some Cortex XDR alerts, the agent operating system sub-type displays the numeric operating system number instead of the official operating system name. For example, 8.0.1905 is displayed instead of Linux CentOS 8. Relevant for Windows, Mac, and Linux endpoints running the Cortex XDR agent 7.3 release.

### CPATR-12027

When you initiate a Live Terminal request from Cortex XDR on a Mac endpoint, it can take the agent up to 15 seconds to respond.

### CPATR-10931

Sometimes in alerts from Mac endpoints, the operating system does not supply a report source address on UDP events. As a result, Cortex XDR displays a source IP address of 0.0.0.0 and a source port of 0 in logs and alert details.

### CPATR-10766

After a Microsoft Windows patch (KB) is uninstalled from the endpoint, the Cortex XDR agent continues to report this KB to Cortex XDR. As a result, the CVEs list for the endpoint in Vulnerability Management cannot be updated to include the CVEs addressed by the uninstalled KB.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/7.x/7.3-eol/known-issues-in-cortex-r-xdr-tm-agent-7.3.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
