I am a security researcher, who is looking for security smells in Ansible scripts.
I found instances where usernames and passwords are specified within a Ansible script.
According to the Common Weakness Enumeration organization this is a security weakness
(CWE-798: Hard-coded credentials https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/798.html).
I am trying to find out if you agree with the findings and the reasons the usernames and passwords were introduced. Any feedback is appreciated.
