MEDIUM 4.6EPSS 0.49%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.49%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
A flaw was found in the Ansible Engine when the fetch module is used. An attacker could intercept the module, inject a new path, and then choose a new destination path on the controller node. All versions in 2.7.x, 2.8.x and 2.9.x branches are believed to be vulnerable.
