GHSA-w8p5-mx5w-cpqj: ansible-core: Argument injection in ansible-galaxy role install leads to arbitrary code execution

highCVSS 7.8CVE-2026-11332
A flaw was found in ansible-core. The ansible-galaxy role install command processes dependency specifications from a role's meta/requirements.yml file. Due to improper neutralization of argument delimiters, a malicious role author can inject arbitrary git configuration flags through the src field. This allows arbitrary code execution on the machine of a user who installs the role via ansible-galaxy role install.
