in the RHSA-2026:93065 advisory.

    Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform provides an enterprise framework for
    building, deploying and managing IT automation at scale. IT Managers can
    provide top-down guidelines on how automation is applied to individual
    teams, while automation developers retain the freedom to write tasks that
    leverage existing knowledge without the overhead. Ansible Automation
    Platform makes it possible for users across an organization to share, vet,
    and manage automation content by means of a simple, powerful, and agentless
    language.

    Security Fix(es):

    * python3.12-brotli: Out-of-Bounds Write in Google Brotli Decoder (CVE-2026-111497)
