CVSS 3.1
5.9 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:NCVE-2018-10855
Medium (5.9). EPSS 3.1% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in ansible 2.4.5.0, 2.5.5.
Ansible 2.5 prior to 2.5.5, and 2.4 prior to 2.4.5, do not honor the no_log task flag for failed tasks. When the no_log flag has been used to protect sensitive data passed to a task from being logged, and that task does not run successfully, Ansible will expose sensitive data in log files and on the terminal of the user running Ansible.
