CVE-2018-16859

Execution of Ansible playbooks on Windows platforms with PowerShell ScriptBlock logging and Module logging enabled can allow for 'become' passwords to appear in EventLogs in plaintext. A local user with administrator privileges on the machine can view these logs and discover the plaintext password. Ansible Engine 2.8 and older are believed to be vulnerable.

This update for ansible fixes the following issues:

Security vulnerabilities fixed:

• CVE-2018-16876: Respect no_log on retry and high verbosity (bsc#1118896)
• CVE-2018-16859: Windows - prevent sensitive content from appearing in scriptblock logging (bsc#1116587)
• CVE-2018-10855: Fixed the honouration of the no_log option with failed task iterations (boo#1097775)
• CVE-2017-7466: Fixed an input validation vulnerability in Ansible's handling of data sent from client systems
• CVE-2017-7481: Fixed a security issue with lookup return not tainting the jinja2 environment (bsc#1038785)

Other bug fixes and changes:

• Update to version 2.7.6
  • Added log message at -vvvv when using netconf connection listing connection details.
  • Changes how ansible-connection names socket lock files. They now use the same name as the socket itself, and as such do not lock other attempts on connections to the same host, or cause issues with overly-long hostnames.
  • Fix mandatory statement error for junos modules (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/50138)
  • Moved error in netconf connection plugin from at import to on connection.
  • This reverts some changes from commit 723daf3. If a line is found in the file, exactly or via regexp matching, it must not be added again. insertafter/insertbefore options are used only when a line is to be inserted, to specify where it must be added.
  • allow using openstack inventory plugin w/o a cache
  • callbacks - Do not filter out exception, warnings, deprecations on failure when using debug (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/47576)
  • certificate_complete_chain - fix behavior when invalid file is parsed while reading intermediate or root certificates.
  • copy - Ensure that the src file contents is converted to unicode in diff information so that it is properly wrapped by AnsibleUnsafeText to prevent unexpected templating of diff data in Python3 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/45717)
  • correct behaviour of verify_file for vmware inventory plugin, it was always returning True
  • dnf - fix issue where conf_file was not being loaded properly
  • dnf - fix update_cache combined with install operation to not cause dnf transaction failure
  • docker_container - fix network_mode idempotency if the container:<container-name> form is used (as opposed to container:<container-id>) (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/49794)
  • docker_container - warning when non-string env values are found, avoiding YAML parsing issues. Will be made an error in Ansible 2.8. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/49802)
  • docker_swarm_service - Document labels and container_labels with correct type.
  • docker_swarm_service - Document limit_memory and reserve_memory correctly on how to specify sizes.
  • docker_swarm_service - Document minimal API version for configs and secrets.
  • docker_swarm_service - fix use of Docker API so that services are not detected as present if there is an existing service whose name is a substring of the desired service
  • docker_swarm_service - fixing falsely reporting update_order as changed when option is not used.
  • document old option that was initally missed
  • ec2_instance now respects check mode https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/46774
  • fix for network_cli - ansible_command_timeout not working as expected (#49466)
  • fix handling of firewalld port if protocol is missing
  • fix lastpass lookup failure on python 3 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/42062)
  • flatpak - Fixed Python 2/3 compatibility
  • flatpak - Fixed issue where newer versions of flatpak failed on flatpak removal
  • flatpak_remote - Fixed Python 2/3 compatibility
  • gcp_compute_instance - fix crash when the instance metadata is not set
  • grafana_dashboard - Fix a pair of unicode string handling issues with version checking (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/49194)
  • host execution order - Fix reverse_inventory not to change the order of the…
