      "summary": "A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-\ncontroller. Survey questions of type password are write-only and stored\nencrypted, displayed only as a placeholder on read. When a schedule or\nworkflow job template node is revalidated against a tightened survey\nspecification, the controller decrypts the stored password and includes its\nplaintext value in the minimum/maximum length validation error message\nreturned in the HTTP response. A user with the delegated JobTemplate Admin\nrole can tighten the survey length constraint and trigger revalidation of a\nschedule or node created by another, higher-privileged user, thereby\nrecovering that user's stored password in plaintext.",
