[ansible-devel] Ansible 2.5.12, 2.6.9, and 2.7.3 are available

2018-11-29 Thread mattdavi
Hi all,

Ansible 2.5.12, 2.6.9, and 2.7.3 were released today. These releases 
include a fix for a reported security vulnerability CVE-2018-16859 
(https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-16859), as well as other small 
bugfixes. Special thanks to community member Igor Turovsky for responsibly 
reporting this issue.

The fix for CVE-2018-16859 protects Windows hosts from disclosing 
potentially sensitive information in the Powershell Operational event log 
via scriptblock logging. If you're automating Windows hosts with Ansible 
using Powershell 5+, or if you've enabled Powershell module logging on any 
Powershell version, you should clear the Powershell event logs and lock 
down access to them. Links to more information and (of course!) an Ansible 
playbook to handle these tasks for you can be found at 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ansible-project/cxihRiXgg3E.

The new releases are available via the usual installation methods on PyPI, 
https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/, and on GitHub. Detailed installation 
instructions are available at 
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html.

Future 2.6 and 2.7 series releases will occur every few weeks. 2.5 will 
only release for critical security updates.

2018-10-31 Thread mattdavi
Hi all,

Ansible 2.5.11 and 2.6.7 were released today. These releases only fix 
reported security vulnerability CVE-2018-16837 
(https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-16837).

The fix protects the user module from potentially disclosing the passphrase 
used for ssh-keygen when generating a new user key.

The new releases are available via the usual installation methods on PyPI, 
https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/, and on GitHub. Detailed installation 
instructions are available at 
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html.

Future 2.6 series releases will occur every few weeks. 2.5 will only 
receive security updates going forward.

[ansible-devel] Ansible 2.5 Core is in FEATURE FREEZE

2018-01-23 Thread mattdavi
Greetings Ansible contributors!

As of end-of-day January 22, 2018, Ansible 2.5 has entered core feature 
freeze in preparation for release. This means that the core engine and 
modules/plugins marked Core or Curated are considered "feature complete", 
and no new UI or features should be merged to the devel branch for these 
parts of the project. Community-maintained module/plugin feature changes 
will continue to be merged through February 7, 2018. Pull requests for 
community plugins should be entered well in advance of that date to allow 
time for necessary review and modifications.

Bugfix and stabilization work will be ongoing through the release date.

Upcoming 2.5.0 dates of interest (estimated):

* February 1, 2018: Ansible 2.5.0a1
* February 7, 2018: Community module freeze (end of day)
* February 8, 2018: Ansible 2.5.0b1
* February 15, 2018: Ansible 2.5.0b2
* February 22, 2018: Ansible 2.5.0rc1 
* March 2018: Ansible 2.5.0 final release

Thanks for your contributions to the Ansible project!
