Breaking Changes / Porting Guide

• User module - The parameter auth_type no longer defaults to password. Playbooks that create a new user and rely on this default must now set auth_type explicitly. Existing playbooks that already pass auth_type are unaffected.

Bugfixes

• User module - Fix editing of users that authenticate via LDAP or SAML. Since 7.1.0, the parameter auth_type defaulted to password, so every edit of an existing user silently reset LDAP- or SAML-authenticated users to local authentication. The default has been removed and the authentication option is now only changed when auth_type, password or enforce_password_change is set explicitly.
