Hello Packer Community,
The Packer team is excited to announce the release of Packer 1.8.1. This release contains a number of fixes to features released in 1.8.0 including a much needed fix to the golang.org/x/crypto/ssh module which implements client authentication support for signature algorithms based on SHA-2. For a full list of changes please take a look at the Packer CHANGELOG <https://github.com/hashicorp/packer/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#181-may-27-2022> . *Notable Features:* - A new HTTP data source that retrieves information from a HTTP GET request to be used within a Packer build. *Notable Fixes:* - Plugins installed via the packer plugins install command will now automatically load for builds using JSON templates or HCL2 templates without a required_plugins block. - All bundled plugins have been updated to their latest release to address any open issues pertaining to the legacy SSH key algorithm fix. - The "*expected a single file, got multiple*" error introduced in v1.8.0 when downloading OVA files has been resolved.
