+* keycloak\_user \- the parameter <code>credentials\[\]\.value</code> is now marked as <code>no\_log\=true</code>\. Before it was logged by Ansible\, unless the task was marked as <code>no\_log\: true</code>\. Since this parameter can be used for passwords\, this resulted in credential leaking \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/11000](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/11000)\, [https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/11005](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/11005)\)\.

+* omapi\_host \- make return values compatible with ansible\-core 2\.19 and Python 3 \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/11001](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/11001)\)\.
+* onepassword\_doc and onepassword\_ssh\_key lookup plugins \- ensure that all connection parameters are passed to CLI class \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/10965](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/10965)\)\.
+* pritunl\_user \- improve resilience when comparing user parameters if remote fields are <code>null</code> or missing\. List parameters \(<code>groups</code>\, <code>mac\_addresses</code>\) now safely default to empty lists for comparison and avoids <code>KeyError</code> issues \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/10954](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/10954)\, [https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/10955](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/10955)\)\.
+* random\_string lookup plugin \- replace <code>random\.SystemRandom\(\)</code> with <code>secrets\.SystemRandom\(\)</code> when generating strings\. This has no practical effect\, as both are the same \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/10893](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/10893)\)\.
+* terraform \- fix bug when <code>null</code> values inside complex vars are throwing error instead of being passed to terraform\. Now terraform can handle <code>null\`\`s in \`\`complex\_vars</code> itself \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/10961](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/10961)\)\.

+--------

+- python_requirements_info - use ``importlib.metadata`` if ``pkg_resources`` from ``setuptools`` cannot be imported. That module has been removed from setuptools 82.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/11491, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11492).

+
+v10.7.6
+=======
+
+Release Summary
+---------------
+
+Regular bugfix release.
+
+Security Fixes
+--------------
+
+- keycloak_user - the parameter ``credentials[].value`` is now marked as ``no_log=true``. Before it was logged by Ansible, unless the task was marked as ``no_log: true``. Since this parameter can be used for passwords, this resulted in credential leaking (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/11000, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11005).
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+
+- gitlab_runner - fix exception in check mode when a new runner is created (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8854).
+- omapi_host - make return values compatible with ansible-core 2.19 and Python 3 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11001).
+- onepassword_doc and onepassword_ssh_key lookup plugins - ensure that all connection parameters are passed to CLI class (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10965).
+- pritunl_user - improve resilience when comparing user parameters if remote fields are ``null`` or missing. List parameters (``groups``, ``mac_addresses``) now safely default to empty lists for comparison and avoids ``KeyError`` issues (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/10954, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10955).
+- random_string lookup plugin - replace ``random.SystemRandom()`` with ``secrets.SystemRandom()`` when generating strings. This has no practical effect, as both are the same (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10893).
+- terraform - fix bug when ``null`` values inside complex vars are throwing error instead of being passed to terraform. Now terraform can handle ``null``s in ``complex_vars`` itself (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10961).
