Alpine: multiple ansible packages: security update to 2.8.15-r0

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 403507

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- An Improper Output Neutralization for Logs flaw was found in Ansible when using the uri module, where
sensitive data is exposed to content and json output. This flaw allows an attacker to access the logs or
outputs of performed tasks to read keys used in playbooks from other users within the uri module. The
highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality. (CVE-2020-14330)

- A flaw was found in the Ansible Engine when using module_args. Tasks executed with check mode (--check-
mode) do not properly neutralize sensitive data exposed in the event data. This flaw allows unauthorized
users to read this data. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.
(CVE-2020-14332)

- A flaw was found in the Ansible Engine, in ansible-engine 2.8.x before 2.8.15 and ansible-engine 2.9.x
before 2.9.13, when installing packages using the dnf module. GPG signatures are ignored during
installation even when disable_gpg_check is set to False, which is the default behavior. This flaw leads
to malicious packages being installed on the system and arbitrary code executed via package installation
scripts. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to integrity and system availability.
(CVE-2020-14365)
