MC-178726The advancement description of "Uneasy Alliance" states that ghasts have to be brought from the nether, but can be obtained from killing a ghast spawned in the overworld
The advancement description of Uneasy Alliance states:
"Rescue a Ghast from the Nether, bring it safely home to the Overworld... and then kill it"
But for the advancement, the ghast is not required to have been brought from the nether to the overworld, and can be obtained by spawning a ghast in the overworld and killing it, despite the description claiming that the ghast had to be brought from the nether.

That makes sense, I probably should have thought more about the issue before reporting it.

Don't worry about their descriptions, there are many more advancements with "wrong" descriptions. For example, it says form and mine a block of obsidian, when you can just find it in a chest. Point is, don't worry about how they are described, it's just the simplest walkthrough to completing it.
That description is correct for survival, where achievements are normally earned, making it correct-ish.

Here's a code analysis of this issue. MC-178726 - uneasy_alliance.json.png
Code Analysis:
{ "parent": "minecraft:nether/return_to_sender", "criteria": { "killed_ghast": { "conditions": { "entity": [ { "condition": "minecraft:entity_properties", "entity": "this", "predicate": { "type": "minecraft:ghast", "location": { "dimension": "minecraft:overworld" } } } ] }, "trigger": "minecraft:player_killed_entity" } }, ...If we look at the above json file, we can see that the requirement to obtain the "Uneasy Alliance" advancement is to simply kill a ghast that's in the overworld. No checks are carried out to see if the ghast traversed to the overworld from the nether, therefore allowing this advancement to be obtained under circumstances that don't comply with the advancement's description.
You can even obtain this advancement by killing a ghast in the nether when the player is in overworld.
Stuck a ghast in a minecart and lit a tnt in front of it when you go back to the overworld could obtain this advancement.
This can be done in survival.
That is MC-251617.
