NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ansible package and not the ansible package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the Ansible Engine when the fetch module is used. An attacker could intercept the module, inject a new path, and then choose a new destination path on the controller node. All versions in 2.7.x, 2.8.x and 2.9.x branches are believed to be vulnerable.
