A flaw was found in ansible-collection-redhat-leapp. When a remediation task is executed with elevated privileges and the leapp_old_postgresql_data option is selected, a PostgreSQL data backup archive is created with insecure permissions. This allows a local non-root user on the managed node to read sensitive archived PostgreSQL data, leading to information disclosure.
