Comment 2 Jason Tibbitts 2018-04-03 17:02:32 UTC
If the Fedora bug was closed, shouldn't the EPEL bug be closed as well?  I understand that the issue wasn't actually fixed in 2.3, but EPEL and Fedora have the same version of Ansible (or will after everything makes it to stable).  Plus Ansible upstream doesn't view this as a bug as Ansible in any case.

Comment 3 Kevin Fenzi 2018-04-03 17:13:53 UTC
Yes. It was just missed it looks like. 

Closing the same as the fedora version of this: 

"Discussed this last week with btarasso.  Couple things I should mention:

* The change in ansible-2.3.0.0 was not to address this (task-level no_log) but module parameters which are labelled no_log in the module's file.
* We don't consider this a bug in Ansible but rather, in any callback which is recording the sensitive data.  I've recorded our thinking in the CVE bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1440912#c22

Since we don't consider this a bug upstream, I think this bug could stay closed but I don't know how the security team wants to track it."
