CVE-2026-71465
3.1
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
Summary
RunAdHocCommand.build_args() appends limit as bare positional (args.append(limit)) instead of using args.extend(['-l', limit]) like RunJob. A limit beginning with - is parsed as an ansible CLI option. Currently limited to short-circuit flags (–version, –help) since injected element displaces required pattern positional. Would escalate if ansible-core ever defaults pattern.
