Rocky Linux 9.6 [TuxCare] Security Update: ansible-core / ansible-test (ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1788175790)

high Nessus Plugin ID 360734

Synopsis

The Rocky Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The Rocky Linux 9.6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1788175790 advisory.

 - A flaw was found in ansible-core. The ansible-galaxy role install command processes dependency specifications from a role's meta/requirements.yml file. Due to improper neutralization of argument delimiters, a malicious role author can inject arbitrary git configuration flags through the src field.
 This allows arbitrary code execution on the machine of a user who installs the role via ansible-galaxy role install. (CVE-2026-11332)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages based on the guidance in TuxCare advisory ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1788175790.
