Ansible Tower before version 3.3.3 does not set a secure channel as it is using the default insecure configuration channel settings for messaging celery workers from RabbitMQ. This could lead in data leak of sensitive information such as passwords as well as denial of service attacks by deleting projects or inventory files.
An issue was discovered in kwajdreadheaders in mspack/kwajd.c in lib ...
An issue was discovered in mspack/chmd.c in libmspack before 0.7alpha. There is an off-by-one error in the TOLOWER() macro for CHM decompression.
Ansible Tower before versions 3.1.8 and 3.2.6 is vulnerable to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) in awx/api/authentication.py. An attacker could exploit this by tricking already authenticated users into visiting a malicious site and hijacking the authtoken cookie.
A cross-site request forgery vulnerability in Jenkins Ansible Tower Plugin 0.9.1 and earlier in the TowerInstallation.TowerInstallationDescriptor#doTestTowerConnection form validation method allowed attackers permission to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins
A missing permission check in Jenkins Ansible Tower Plugin 0.9.1 and earlier in the TowerInstallation.TowerInstallationDescriptor#doTestTowerConnection form validation method allowed attackers with Overall/Read permission to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.
A flaw was found in ansible-tower where the default installation is vulnerable to job isolation escape. This flaw allows an attacker to elevate the privilege from a low privileged user to an AWX user from outside the isolated environment.
A vulnerability was found in Ansible Tower before 3.6.1 where an attacker with low privilege could retrieve usernames and passwords credentials from the new RHSM saved in plain text into the database at '/api/v2/config' when applying the Ansible Tower license.
A flaw was found in Ansible Tower, versions 3.6.x before 3.6.2 and 3.5.x before 3.5.3, where enabling RabbitMQ manager by setting it with '-e rabbitmqenablemanager=true' exposes the RabbitMQ management interface publicly, as expected. If the default admin user is still active, an attacker could guess the password and gain access to the system.
A privilege escalation flaw was found in the Ansible Tower. When Tower before 3.0.3 deploys a PostgreSQL database, it incorrectly configures the trust level of postgres user. An attacker could use this vulnerability to gain admin level access to the database.
A flaw was found in Ansible Engine, all versions 2.7.x, 2.8.x and 2.9.x prior to 2.7.17, 2.8.11, and 2.9.7 respectively, when using ansiblefacts as a subkey of itself and promoting it to a variable when inject is enabled, overwriting the ansiblefacts after the clean. An attacker could take advantage of this by altering the ansiblefacts, such as ansiblehosts, users and any other key data which would lead into privilege escalation or code injection.
A flaw was found in the Ansible Engine 2.9.18, where sensitive info is not masked by default and is not protected by the nolog feature when using the sub-option feature of the basic.py module. This flaw allows an attacker to obtain sensitive information. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.
It was found that the superexec operator was available in the internal dictionary in ghostscript before 9.27. A specially crafted PostScript file could use this flaw in order to, for example, have access to the file system outside of the constrains imposed by -dSAFER.
It was found that the forceput operator could be extracted from the DefineResource method in ghostscript before 9.27. A specially crafted PostScript file could use this flaw in order to, for example, have access to the file system outside of the constrains imposed by -dSAFER.
A vulnerability was found in Ansible engine 2.x up to 2.8 and Ansible tower 3.x up to 3.5. When a module has an argumentspec with sub parameters marked as nolog, passing an invalid parameter name to the module will cause the task to fail before the nolog options in the sub parameters are processed. As a result, data in the sub parameter fields will not be masked and will be displayed if Ansible is run with increased verbosity and present in the module invocation arguments for the task.
A vulnerability has been found in nxosfilecopy from Ansible module. Filenames are used to perform actions to copy files to a flash or bootflash on NXOS devices. However, nxosfilecopy takes remotefile parameter which is used for destination. Malicious code could crafts the filename parameter to take advantage by performing an OS command injection.
Ansible Tower before version 3.2.4 has a flaw in the management of system and organization administrators that allows for privilege escalation. System administrators that are members of organizations can have their passwords reset by organization administrators, allowing organization administrators access to the entire system.
When running Tower before 3.4.3 on OpenShift or Kubernetes, application credentials are exposed to playbook job runs via environment variables. A malicious user with the ability to write playbooks could use this to gain administrative privileges.
A flaw was found in the Ansible Engine, in ansible-engine 2.8.x before 2.8.15 and ansible-engine 2.9.x before 2.9.13, when installing packages using the dnf module. GPG signatures are ignored during installation even when disablegpgcheck is set to False, which is the default behavior. This flaw leads to malicious packages being installed on the system and arbitrary code executed via package installation scripts. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to integrity and system availability.
A flaw was found in ansible tower. Default installations are vulnerable to “Job Isolation” Escapes that allows an attacker to elevate to the “awx” user from outside the isolated environment.
Ansible Tower (aka Ansible UI) before 2.0.5 allows remote organization administrators to gain privileges by creating a superuser account.
An issue was discovered in mspack/chmd.c in libmspack before 0.7alpha. ...
Ansible, versions 2.9.x before 2.9.1, 2.8.x before 2.8.7 and Ansible versions 2.7.x before 2.7.15, is not respecting the flag nolog set it to True when Sumologic and Splunk callback plugins are used send tasks results events to collectors. This would discloses and collects any sensitive data.
A flaw was found in libgxps through 0.3.0. There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function ftfontfacehash of gxps-fonts.c. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack.

There is a stack-based buffer over-read in calling GLib in the function gxpsimagesguesscontenttype of gxps-images.c in libgxps through 0.3.0 because it does not reject negative return values from a ginputstreamread call. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack.
A flaw was found in Ansible Tower, versions 3.6.x before 3.6.2, where files in '/var/backup/tower' are left world-readable. These files include both the SECRETKEY and the database backup. Any user with access to the Tower server, and knowledge of when a backup is run, could retrieve every credential stored in Tower. Access to data is the highest threat with this vulnerability.
A data exposure flaw was found in Tower, where sensitive data was revealed from the HTTP return error codes. This flaw allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to retrieve pages from the default organization and verify existing usernames. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality.
A few different modules leak sensitive data such as secret values. This could lead in disclosing those credentials for every user which has access to the output of playbook execution.
A Server-side request forgery (SSRF) flaw was found in Ansible Tower in versions before 3.6.5 and before 3.7.2. Functionality on the Tower server is abused by supplying a URL that could lead to the server processing it. This flaw leads to the connection to internal services or the exposure of additional internal services by abusing the test feature of lookup credentials to forge HTTP/HTTPS requests from the server and retrieving the results of the response.
A flaw was found in Ansible where the secret information present in asyncfiles are getting disclosed when the user changes the jobdir to a world readable directory. Any secret information in an async status file will be readable by a malicious user on that system. This flaw affects Ansible Tower 3.7 and Ansible Automation Platform 1.2.
