+#### community\.dns
+
+* DNS record modules\, inventory plugins \- fix the TXT entry encoder to avoid splitting up escape sequences for quotes and backslashes over multiple TXT strings \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.dns/issues/190](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.dns/issues/190)\, [https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.dns/pull/191](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.dns/pull/191)\)\.

+
+<a id="community-docker-1"></a>
+#### community\.docker
+
+* docker\_compose\_v2 \- do not fail when non\-fatal errors occur\. This can happen when pulling an image fails\, but then the image can be built for another service\. Docker Compose emits an error in that case\, but <code>docker compose up</code> still completes successfully \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/issues/807](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/issues/807)\, [https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/pull/810](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/pull/810)\, [https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/pull/811](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/pull/811)\)\.

+* docker\_compose\_v2\_pull \- fixing idempotence by checking actual pull progress events instead of service\-level pull request when <code>policy\=always</code>\. This stops the module from reporting <code>changed\=true</code> if no actual change happened when pulling\. In check mode\, it has to assume that a change happens though \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/issues/813](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/issues/813)\, [https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/pull/814](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/pull/814)\)\.

 #### community\.docker
 
 * The <code>community\.docker</code> collection now depends on the <code>community\.library\_inventory\_filtering\_v1</code> collection\. This utility collection provides host filtering functionality for inventory plugins\. If you use the Ansible community package\, both collections are included and you do not have to do anything special\. If you install the collection with <code>ansible\-galaxy collection install</code>\, it will be installed automatically\. If you install the collection by copying the files of the collection to a place where ansible\-core can find it\, for example by cloning the git repository\, you need to make sure that you also have to install the dependency if you are using the inventory plugins \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/pull/698](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.docker/pull/698)\)\.

+
+community.general
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- bitwarden lookup plugin - allows to fetch all records of a given collection ID, by allowing to pass an empty value for ``search_value`` when ``collection_id`` is provided (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8013).
+- icinga2 inventory plugin - adds new parameter ``group_by_hostgroups`` in order to make grouping by Icinga2 hostgroups optional (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7998).

+
+community.routeros
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- api_info, api_modify - add read-only fields ``installed-version``, ``latest-version`` and ``status`` in ``system package update`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/263).

+
+community.windows
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- win_regmerge - Add content 'content' parameter for specifying registry file contents directly
+
+dellemc.powerflex
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- The Info module is enhanced to retrieve lists related to fault sets, service templates, deployments, and managed devices.

+- cobbler, gitlab_runners, icinga2, linode, lxd, nmap, online, opennebula, proxmox, scaleway, stackpath_compute, virtualbox, and xen_orchestra inventory plugin - make sure all data received from the remote servers is marked as unsafe, so remote code execution by obtaining texts that can be evaluated as templates is not possible (https://www.die-welt.net/2024/03/remote-code-execution-in-ansible-dynamic-inventory-plugins/, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8098).
+
+community.hrobot
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- robot inventory plugin - make sure all data received from the Hetzner robot service server is marked as unsafe, so remote code execution by obtaining texts that can be evaluated as templates is not possible (https://www.die-welt.net/2024/03/remote-code-execution-in-ansible-dynamic-inventory-plugins/, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hrobot/pull/99).
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+
+Ansible-core
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Fix an issue when setting a plugin name from an unsafe source resulted in ``ValueError: unmarshallable object`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82708)
+- Harden python templates for respawn and ansiballz around str literal quoting
+- ansible-test - The ``libexpat`` package is automatically upgraded during remote bootstrapping to maintain compatibility with newer Python packages.
+- template - Fix error when templating an unsafe string which corresponds to an invalid type in Python (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82600).
+- winrm - does not hang when attempting to get process output when stdin write failed
+
+amazon.aws
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- cloudwatchevent_rule - Fix to avoid adding quotes to JSON input for provided input_template (https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws/pull/1883).
+- lookup/secretsmanager_secret - fix the issue when the nested secret is missing and on_missing is set to warn, the lookup was raising an error instead of a warning message (https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws/issues/1781).
+- module_utils/elbv2 - Fix issue when creating or modifying Load balancer rule type authenticate-oidc using ``ClientSecret`` parameter and ``UseExistingClientSecret=true`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws/issues/1877).
+
+ansible.windows
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- win_get_url - Fix Tls1.3 getting removed from the list of security protocols
+- win_powershell - Remove unecessary using in code causing stray error records in output - https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.windows/issues/571
+
+community.dns
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- DNS record modules, inventory plugins - fix the TXT entry encoder to avoid splitting up escape sequences for quotes and backslashes over multiple TXT strings (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.dns/issues/190, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.dns/pull/191).
+- Update Public Suffix List.
+
+community.docker
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- docker_compose_v2 - do not fail when non-fatal errors occur. This can happen when pulling an image fails, but then the image can be built for another service. Docker Compose emits an error in that case, but ``docker compose up`` still completes successfully (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/issues/807, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/810, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/811).
+- docker_compose_v2* modules - correctly parse ``Warning`` events emitted by Docker Compose (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/issues/807, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/811).
+- docker_compose_v2* modules - parse ``logfmt`` warnings emitted by Docker Compose (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/issues/787, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/811).
+- docker_compose_v2_pull - fixing idempotence by checking actual pull progress events instead of service-level pull request when ``policy=always``. This stops the module from reporting ``changed=true`` if no actual change happened when pulling. In check mode, it has to assume that a change happens though (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/issues/813, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/814).
+
+community.general
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- aix_filesystem - fix issue with empty list items in crfs logic and option order (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8052).
+- consul_token - fix token creation without ``accessor_id`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8091).
+- homebrew - error returned from brew command was ignored and tried to parse empty JSON. Fix now checks for an error and raises it to give accurate error message to users (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8047).
+- ipa_hbacrule - the module uses a string for ``ipaenabledflag`` for new FreeIPA versions while the returned value is a boolean (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7880).
+- ipa_sudorule - the module uses a string for ``ipaenabledflag`` for new FreeIPA versions while the returned value is a boolean (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7880).
+- iptables_state - fix idempotency issues when restoring incomplete iptables dumps (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8029).
+- linode inventory plugin - add descriptive error message for linode inventory plugin (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8133).
+- pacemaker_cluster - actually implement check mode, which the module claims to support. This means that until now the module also did changes in check mode (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8081).
+- pam_limits - when the file does not exist, do not create it in check mode (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8050, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8057).
+- proxmox_kvm - fixed status check getting from node-specific API endpoint (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7817).
+
+community.windows
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- win_format, win_partition - Add support for Windows failover cluster disks
+- win_psmodule - Fix up error message with ``state=latest``
+- win_robocopy - Fix up ``cmd`` return value to include the executable ``robocopy``
+
+ibm.storage_virtualize
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- ibm_svc_info - Command and release mapping to remove errors in gather_subset=all
+- ibm_svc_info - Return error in listing entities that require object name
+
+kubernetes.core
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Resolve Collections util resource discovery fails when complex subresources present (https://github.com/ansible-collections/kubernetes.core/pull/676).
+
+lowlydba.sqlserver
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Update documentation for agent_job_schedule to reflect proper input formatting. (https://github.com/lowlydba/lowlydba.sqlserver/pull/229)
+
+microsoft.ad
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- microsoft.ad.group - Support membership lookup of groups that are longer than 20 characters long
+- microsoft.ad.membership - Add helpful hint when the failure was due to a missing/invalid ``domain_ou_path`` - https://github.com/ansible-collections/microsoft.ad/issues/88
+
+purestorage.flasharray
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- purefa_certs - Allow certificates of over 3000 characters to be imported.
+- purefa_info - Resolved issue with KeyError when LACP bonds are in use
+- purefa_inventory - Fix issue with iSCSI-only FlashArrays
+- purefa_pgsnap - Add support for restoring volumes connected to hosts in a host-based protection group and hosts in a hostgroup-based protection group.
+
+purestorage.flashblade
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- purefb_bucket - Changed logic to allow complex buckets to be created in a single call, rather than having to split into two tasks.
+- purefb_lag - Enable LAG port configuration with multi-chassis
+- purefb_timeout - Fixed arithmetic error that resulted in module incorrectly reporting changed when no change was required.
+
+New Plugins
+-----------
+
+Filter
+~~~~~~
+
+- microsoft.ad.dn_escape - Escape an LDAP DistinguishedName value string.
+- microsoft.ad.parse_dn - Parses an LDAP DistinguishedName string into an object.
+
+New Modules
+-----------
+
+community.general
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- community.general.usb_facts - Allows listing information about USB devices
+
+community.hashi_vault
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- community.hashi_vault.vault_database_connection_configure - Configures the database engine
+- community.hashi_vault.vault_database_connection_delete - Delete a Database Connection
+- community.hashi_vault.vault_database_connection_read - Returns the configuration settings for a O(connection_name)
+- community.hashi_vault.vault_database_connection_reset - Closes a O(connection_name) and its underlying plugin and restarts it with the configuration stored
+- community.hashi_vault.vault_database_connections_list - Returns a list of available connections
+- community.hashi_vault.vault_database_role_create - Creates or updates a (dynamic) role definition
