This sets the destination files world-readable if the destination file does not exist and if the file exists, the file could be changed to have less restrictive permissions before the move. This could lead to the disclosure of sensitive data. All versions in 2.7.x, 2.8.x and 2.9.x branches are believed to be vulnerable.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","score":3.3},"cwes":["CWE-732"],"references":["https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2020-1736","https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/67794","https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/2NYYQP2XJB2TTRP6AKWVMBSPB2DFJNKD/","https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/BPNZWBAUP4ZHUR6PO7U6ZXEKNCX62KZ7/","https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202006-11"],"products":["fedoraproject:fedora","redhat:ansible","redhat:ansible_tower","redhat:cloudforms_management_engine","redhat:openstack"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:03:08.679916934+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2020-1736","score":0.00405,"percentile":0.34742,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-x7jh-595q-wq82","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-x7jh-595q-wq82","summary":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource in Ansible","modified":"2024-11-22T05:24:41.049539Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"ansible","purl":"pkg:pypi/ansible","ranges":[">=2.7.0 <=2.10.0"],"fixed":[]}]},{"id":"PYSEC-2020-8","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/PYSEC-2020-8","summary":"","modified":"2023-11-08T04:02:40.966773Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"ansible","purl":"pkg:pypi/ansible","ranges":["<2.7.17",">=2.8.0 <2.8.9",">=2.9.0 <2.9.6"],"fixed":["2.7.17","2.8.9","2.9.6"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
