+          https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11548).
+        - xfconf - representation of boolean properties was not consistent between
+          Python and ``xfconf-query``, leading to broken idempotency (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11645).

+          that appears on Fedora 44 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11836).
+        - homebrew_cask - fix ``sudo_password`` failing when the password contains
+          single quotes or other special shell characters (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4957,
+          https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11850).
+        - lvol - fix LVM version parsing (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5445,
+          https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11823).
+        - mssql_script - only passes ``params`` to ``cursor.execute()`` when the user
+          actually provides them (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/11699,
+          https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11754).
+        - sefcontext - flush the in-process ``matchpathcon`` cache after applying
+          changes, so subsequent tasks running in the same process (for example via
+          the Mitogen connection plugin) see the updated SELinux file context rules
+          instead of stale cached data (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/888,

Use a quoted heredoc (cat <<'SUDO_PASS') instead, which treats the content completely literally regardless of special characters. Also replace .file.close() with .flush() (correct semantics — flushes the write buffer without leaving the NamedTemporaryFile in a half-closed state) and remove the redundant add_cleanup_file() call (the context manager already deletes the file on exit).
