Hey everyone,

We’re excited to announce a new version of AWX, 17.1.0.

Here are some of the notable changes from the official changelog (https://github.com/ansible/awx/blob/devel/CHANGELOG.md):

• Addressed a security issue in AWX (CVE-2021-20253)
• Fixed a bug permissions error related to redis in K8s-based deployments: https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/9401

Happy automating!

Is the docker install still supported with this release?

Hey there,

The upcoming changes to the Docker install method (described here: https://groups.google.com/g/awx-project/c/47MjWSUQaOc/m/bCjSDn0eBQAJ) will be released in the coming weeks as part of AWX 18.0.0; the migration path from 17.0.1 to 17.1.0 does not involve modifying your install/deployment method.
