Answer in brief
CVE-2026-84503 records a Medium severity (CVSS 6.7) vulnerability in Ansible-core: ansible-core: ansible.builtin.git invokes git without a `--` separator, allowing argument injection via a `-`-leading repository url (e.g. --upload-pack) -> rce. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps Red Hat/ansible-automation-platform-24/ee-minimal-rhel8 (generic), Red Hat/ansible-automation-platform-24/ee-minimal-rhel9 (generic), Red Hat/ansible-automation-platform-24/hub-rhel8 (generic), Red Hat/ansible-automation-platform-25/ansible-dev-tools-rhel8 (generic) and additional mapped packages. Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.

A flaw was found in ansible-core's ansible.builtin.git module. The module invokes git (ls-remote, clone, fetch) with the repository URL as a positional argument and without a "--" separator, so a repository URL that begins with a dash is interpreted by git as a command-line option. A caller that passes an attacker-controlled repository URL to the module can trigger argument injection (for example --upload-pack/--exec), resulting in arbitrary command execution on the host running the module.
