Please see the CHANGELOG for information about the changes in the release. You can download this version from PowerShellGallery.

Because We noticed an issue with installing from the gallery where one had to use -SkipPublisherCheck when running Install-Module
Install-Module -Name PSScriptAnalyzer -SkipPublisherCheck due to a wrong file catalog signing hash, therefore the module was pulled from the Gallery at the end and version 1.17.1 should be used instead.
