CVE-2019-14846  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-200  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade ansible to version 2.9.12, 2.8.6, 2.10.0, 2.7.14 or higher.

Overview

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. Logging with ansible is set at the DEBUG level which lead to a disclosure of credentials if a plugin used a library that logged credentials at the DEBUG level. This flaw does not affect Ansible modules, as those are executed in a separate process.
