What's new in 2.7.8, 2.6.14, and 2.5.15?
----------------------------------------

These releases are maintenance releases containing numerous bugfixes.
Of special note is that these releases fix CVE-2019-3828 where a
compromised remote machine could cause ansible's fetch module to
overwrite files on the Ansible controller.  The full changelog is at:

* 2.7.8
  
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/stable-2.7/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.7.rst
* 2.6.14
  
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/stable-2.6/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.6.rst
* 2.5.15
  
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/stable-2.5/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.5.rst

What's the schedule for future maintenance releases?
----------------------------------------------------

Ansible 2.5 is in security fix-only mode so there will only be another
release if it's needed to fix a security bug.  Ansible 2.6 and Ansible
2.7 have maintenance releases approximately every 3 weeks.  So expect
the next one around March 14th.


We've published a porting guide at
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting_guides/porting_guide_2.7.html
to help migrate your content to 2.7. If you discover any errors, or if
you see any regressions from playbooks which work on 2.7.7 and prior,
please open a GitHub issue, and be sure to mention you're using 2.7.8.

Thanks!
