Ansible is a simple model-driven configuration management, multi-node deployment, and remote-task execution system. Ansible works over SSH and does not require any software or daemons to be installed on remote nodes. Extension modules can be written in any language and are transferred to managed machines automatically.

The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version: ansible (2.8.4)

Security fix(es):

Ansible: data disclosure when a password from the prompt contains template characters (CVE-2019-10206)
Ansible: gcp modules do not flag sensitive data fields properly (CVE-2019-10217)
