What it is

A flaw was found in the community.general Ansible collection's nexmo module.

The module constructs HTTP requests to the Vonage/Nexmo SMS API by encoding

API credentials (api_key and api_secret) into URL query parameters and

sending them via GET requests. This causes credentials to be exposed in web

server access logs, proxy logs, HTTP Referer headers, and network monitoring

tools, despite the Ansible argument specification marking these parameters

as no_log. An attacker with access to any of these logging or monitoring

points can obtain the full API credentials and gain unauthorized access to

the victim's Vonage/Nexmo account.
