CVE-2019-14846: Inclusion of Sensitive Information in Log Files

October 8, 2019 (updated October 21, 2019)

Ansible is logging at the DEBUG level which lead to a disclosure of credentials if a plugin used a library that logged credentials at the DEBUG level. This flaw does not affect Ansible modules, as those are executed in a separate process.
