Doc Text:
A data disclosure flaw was found in ansible. Password prompts in ansible-playbook and ansible-cli tools could expose passwords with special characters as they are not properly wrapped. A password with special characters is exposed starting with the first of these special characters. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality.

Description Borja Tarraso 2019-07-23 22:13:47 UTC 
ansible-playbook -k and ansible cli tools prompt passwords by expanding them from templates as they could contain special characters. Passwords should be wrapped to prevent templates trigger and exposing them.

Comment 12 Hardik Vyas 2019-09-04 09:40:25 UTC 
Gluster uses Ansible package from Ansible repository and hence it will consume fixes from core Ansible.
For Ceph-3 we still maintain Ansible atleast for Ubuntu, Ceph-2 has reached end of life and hence out of support scope.
