Overview
ansible is a simple IT automation system.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. When managing kubernetes using the k8s module, sensitive parameters such as passwords and tokens are passed to kubectl from the command line, not using an environment variable or an input configuration file. This will disclose passwords and tokens from process list and no_log directive from debug module would not have any effect, making these secrets being disclosed on stdout and log files.
