The pemcollective module in Puppet Enterprise (PE) before 2.7.1 does not properly restrict access to a catalog of private SSL keys, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information and gain privileges by leveraging root access to a node, related to the master role.
Puppet Enterprise (PE) before 2.6.1 does not properly invalidate sessions when the session secret has changed, which allows remote authenticated users to retain access via unspecified vectors.
Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in the (1) node request management, (2) live management, and (3) user administration components in the console in Puppet Enterprise (PE) before 2.7.1 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of unspecified victims via unknown vectors.
From puppet labs: Puppet agents with certnames of IP addresses can be impersonated
This affects Puppet 2.6.16 and 2.7.17
If an authenticated host with a certname of an IP address changes IP addresses, and a second host assumes the first host's former IP address, the second host will be treated by the puppet master as the first one, giving the second host access to the first host's catalog. Note: This will not be fixed in Puppet versions prior to the forthcoming 3.x. Instead, with this announcement IP-based authentication in Puppet < 3.x is deprecated.
Resolved in Puppet 2.6.17, 2.7.18
Puppet 2.6.x before 2.6.14 and 2.7.x before 2.7.11, and Puppet Enterprise (PE) Users 1.0, 1.1, 1.2.x, 2.0.x before 2.0.3, when managing a user login file with the k5login resource type, allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack on .k5login.
The changeuser method in the SUIDManager (lib/puppet/util/suidmanager.rb) in Puppet 2.6.x before 2.6.14 and 2.7.x before 2.7.11, and Puppet Enterprise (PE) Users 1.0, 1.1, 1.2.x, 2.0.x before 2.0.3 does not properly manage group privileges, which allows local users to gain privileges via vectors related to (1) the changeuser not dropping supplementary groups in certain conditions, (2) changes to the eguid without associated changes to the egid, or (3) the addition of the real gid to supplementary groups.
