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. community.general: community.general nexmo — API credentials exposed in GET URL query string[SECURITY] community.general nexmo — API credentials exposed in GET URL query string Code Flaw initial found in community.general 13.0.0, however, the same code logic is found in older versions going back at least to 8.3. This flaw affects the community.general Ansible collection's nexmo module in all versions prior to its removal in 9.0.0. Red Hat ships ansible-collection-community-general in several product streams (EPEL, Fedora, OpenStack). The vulnerability exposes Vonage/Nexmo API credentials in HTTP request URLs, making them available in server logs and network monitoring. The nexmo module is deprecated upstream and the recommended remediation is to stop using it in favor of direct API calls via the uri module.
