The latest release of Puppet Core was targeted at addressing reported CVEs and adding agent support for Ubuntu 26.04, along with some other items that might be of interest to you! Here's a quick rundown on the highlights:
- Ubuntu 26.04 (x86_64 and ARM) support added for Puppet agents
- Updated components for OpenSSL, net-imap, and concurrent-Ruby to address 13 CVEs
- Sensitive values are now handled correctly in
transactionstore.yaml - On macOS,
plistfiles are now written atomically to prevent partial or zero-length reads. - PXP agent metadata now uses uniquely named temporary files to resolve file-rename race conditions that were happening for Windows tasks.
This was just my quick summary of the notes, so make sure to read the full release notes for Puppet Core 8.20 to get all the details before you upgrade!
