RHBA-2025:14709 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An update is now available for Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5

Description

Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform provides an enterprise framework for building, deploying and managing IT automation at scale. IT Managers can provide top-down guidelines on how automation is applied to individual teams, while automation developers retain the freedom to write tasks that leverage existing knowledge without the overhead. Ansible Automation Platform makes it possible for users across an organization to share, vet, and manage automation content by means of a simple, powerful, and agentless language.

Update(s) and Fix(es):

• Updated the ansible.controller collection to 4.6.19 (AAP-51863)
• Updated the ansible.eda collection to 2.9.0 (AAP-51859)
• Updated 'client_request_timeout' and dependent variables (such as gRPC timeout and envoy 'request_timeout') to be set relative to haproxy timeout annotation, if present (AAP-51749)
• Fixed regression in the ansible.controller collection where the argument 'controller_oauthtoken' was removed in error, fixed newly added 'aap_token' to function the same as 'controller_oauthtoken' and fixed the 'ansible.controller.controller_api' lookup plugin (AAP-51289)
• Implemented a task to fix the PostgreSQL password encryption when upgrading from PG13 to PG15 on FIPS (AAP-50443)
• Updated web server timeouts to avoid issues where requests timeout at client or proxy, but work continues long past the timeout (AAP-50311, AAP-50310, AAP-50309, AAP-50308)
• Fixed backup and restores for deployments with external databases and refactored the tasks for managed database restores to be a separate code path (AAP-50299)
