Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for ansible.

CVE-2021-3447[0]:
| A flaw was found in several ansible modules, where parameters
| containing credentials, such as secrets, were being logged in plain-
| text on managed nodes, as well as being made visible on the controller
| node when run in verbose mode. These parameters were not protected by
| the no_log feature. An attacker can take advantage of this information
| to steal those credentials, provided when they have access to the log
| files containing them. The highest threat from this vulnerability is
| to data confidentiality. This flaw affects Red Hat Ansible Automation
| Platform in versions before 1.2.2 and Ansible Tower in versions before
| 3.8.2.
