Alpine: multiple ansible packages: security update to 2.8.4-r0

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 403511

Description

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

- ansible-playbook -k and ansible cli tools, all versions 2.8.x before 2.8.4, all 2.7.x before 2.7.13 and
all 2.6.x before 2.6.19, prompt passwords by expanding them from templates as they could contain special
characters. Passwords should be wrapped to prevent templates trigger and exposing them. (CVE-2019-10206)

- A flaw was found in ansible 2.8.0 before 2.8.4. Fields managing sensitive data should be set as such by
no_log feature. Some of these fields in GCP modules are not set properly. service_account_contents() which
is common class for all gcp modules is not setting no_log to True. Any sensitive data managed by that
function would be leak as an output when running ansible playbooks. (CVE-2019-10217)
