Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.84%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
A path traversal vulnerability exists in Ansible when extracting tarballs. An attacker could craft a malicious tarball so that when using the galaxy importer of Ansible Automation Hub, a symlink could be dropped on the disk, resulting in files being overwritten.
