Overview

It handles configuration management, application deployment, cloud provisioning, ad-hoc task execution, network automation, and multi-node orchestration. Ansible makes complex changes like zero-downtime rolling updates with load balancers easy.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Exposure of Sensitive Information in Log Files when loading variables from Ansible Vault without setting no_log: true, which is the behavior of some tasks, including include_vars. This vulnerability can be exploited during the execution of a playbook.

This is a similar vulnerability to the previously reported CVE-2024-0690.
