PYSEC-2018-44

Quick fix

PYSEC-2018-44 — ansible: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

pip install --upgrade 'ansible>=2.5.11'

Details

Ansible "User" module leaks any data which is passed on as a parameter to ssh-keygen. This could lean in undesirable situations such as passphrases credentials passed as a parameter for the ssh-keygen executable. Showing those credentials in clear text form for every user which have access just to the process list.
