Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform: information disclosure in errors

Red Hat advisory

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-

controller. Survey questions of type password are write-only and stored

encrypted, displayed only as a placeholder on read. When a schedule or

workflow job template node is revalidated against a tightened survey

specification, the controller decrypts the stored password and includes its

plaintext value in the minimum/maximum length validation error message

returned in the HTTP response. A user with the delegated JobTemplate Admin

role can tighten the survey length constraint and trigger revalidation of a

schedule or node created by another, higher-privileged user, thereby

recovering that user's stored password in plaintext.
