Remediation

Review the recorded instructions. Guidance may be a workaround rather than a fixed version.
What this means
The Rubygem-foreman_ansible plugin's Ansible inventory API ignores view_hosts permission filters, exposing hidden parameters. An authenticated user with restricted host visibility can access the full Ansible inventory for arbitrary hosts. The weakness is due to incorrect authorization.

cpe:/a:redhat:satellite:6What to do
Compare your installed product and version with the affected versions above. A matching product name alone does not confirm exposure.
Restrict which users and roles have access to the view_hosts permission covering the ansible_inventories controller actions. If specific users do not need Ansible inventory access, remove the permission mapping from their roles. Review hidden parameter usage: avoid storing high-value credentials in host parameters that would be included in inventory output

Original source description
Read the full publisher description
A flaw was found in the foreman_ansible plugin's Ansible inventory API. The controller builds its host query using an unscoped Host.where call that does not enforce the search filter associated with the caller's view_hosts permission. An authenticated user whose host visibility is restricted by a permission filter can supply arbitrary host IDs within their organization and receive the full Ansible inventory for those hosts, including parameter values marked as hidden.
