There is no fixed version for ansible.

Amendment

This was deemed not a vulnerability.

Overview

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. A flaw was found in Ansible where the secret information present in async_files are getting disclosed when the user changes the jobdir to a world readable directory. Any secret information in an async status file will be readable by a malicious user on that system.

Note: This vulnerability is revoked because it was found to be an invalid issue in the context of the library.
