To help fix vulnerabilities on nodes, upload modules published on the Puppet
Forge. The module must contain a task.
Modules are self-contained bundles of code and data. Each module manages a specific task in
your infrastructure, such as installing and configuring a piece of software. For more
information, see Module fundamentals.
