PYSEC-2020-2

Quick fix

PYSEC-2020-2 — ansible: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

pip install --upgrade 'ansible>=2.9.7'

Details

An archive traversal flaw was found in all ansible-engine versions 2.9.x prior to 2.9.7, when running ansible-galaxy collection install. When extracting a collection .tar.gz file, the directory is created without sanitizing the filename. An attacker could take advantage to overwrite any file within the system.
