Mitigation checklist
- Restrict which users and roles have access to the view_hosts permission covering the ansible_inventories controller actions. If specific users do not need Ansible inventory access, remove the permission mapping from their roles. Review hidden parameter usage: avoid storing high-value credentials in host parameters that would be included in inventory output
