NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ansible-base package and not the ansible-base package as distributed by Debian.

A flaw was found in the Ansible Engine 2.9.18, where sensitive info is not masked by default and is not protected by the no_log feature when using the sub-option feature of the basic.py module. This flaw allows an attacker to obtain sensitive information. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.
