CVE-2017-7550 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2017-7550):
  A flaw was found in the way Ansible (2.3.x before 2.3.3, and 2.4.x before
  2.4.1) passed certain parameters to the jenkins_plugin module. Remote
  attackers could use this flaw to expose sensitive information from a remote
  host's logs. This flaw was fixed by not allowing passwords to be specified
  in the "params" argument, and noting this in the module documentation.

cleaned up in 40bf1a5a5a1af94674217c21ea2a92a6ee7d4da5

2.4.1 was already stable (which by the description is fixed).

Hi Sec team.

Can someone close this bug? I think this is no longer relevant and outdated. The latest stable version available in the main repo is 2.5.2. Thanks.
