A flaw was found in Foreman / Red Hat Satellite, where temporary files created under /var/tmp during job execution have improper permissions. This allows low-privileged OS users to access and read command execution outputs, potentially exposing sensitive information such as system credentials or configuration details before the temporary files are deleted.This vulnerability does not grant direct privilege escalation but increases the risk of information disclosure, which could be leveraged in further attacks.

When running a remote execution job on a host, the ssh key of the host is not being checked. When the key changes, the Satellite connects it anyway because it uses "-o StrictHostKeyChecking=no". This can lead to MITM, DoS, leaking of whatever secrets the remote execution job contains, or whatever other issues may arise from the attacker being able to forge a ssh key. This does not directly allow unauthorized remote execution on the Satellite (although it can leak secrets leading to it)..
Satellite is executing external requests via the Referer header under the /location/clear path. It is possible to trigger an external interaction to an attacker's server, by executing a GET request to /locations/clear and modifying the Referer header to an attacker-controlled server.
A command injection flaw was found in Red Hat Satellite 6.16.5.2 (Foreman 3.12.0.8-1). Although a whitelist for CoreOS Transpiler Command and Fedora CoreOS Transpiler Command is implemented, the whitelist is only enforced on the client-side and is not validated on the server-side. This flaw allows an authenticated user with editsettings permissions to modify these parameters to achieve arbitrary command execution on underlying operating system and bypass safe mode rendering.
A flaw was found in foreman-installer when puppet-candlepin is invoked cpdb with the --password parameter. This issue leaks the password in the process list and allows an attacker to take advantage and obtain the password.
A command injection flaw was found in the "Host Init Config" template in the Foreman application via the "Install Packages" field on the "Register Host" page. This flaw allows an attacker with the necessary privileges to inject arbitrary commands into the configuration, potentially allowing unauthorized command execution during host registration. Although this issue requires user interaction to execute injected commands, it poses a significant risk if an unsuspecting user runs the generated registration script.
An authentication bypass vulnerability has been identified in Foreman when deployed with Gunicorn versions prior to 22.0, due to the puppet-foreman configuration. This issue arises from Apache's modproxy not properly unsetting headers because of restrictions on underscores in HTTP headers, allowing authentication through a malformed header. This flaw impacts all active Satellite deployments (6.13, 6.14 and 6.15) which are using Pulpcore version 4.0+ and could potentially enable unauthorized users to gain administrative access.
An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in Foreman due to Pulpcore when deployed with Gunicorn versions earlier than 22.0. The issue arises from how Apache’s modproxy handles header as it fails to unset it properly due to restrictions on underscores in HTTP headers. This allow authentication through malformed header instead. This flaw affects all Katello/Satellite 6.10+ deployments using Pulpcore from version 4.0+ and could potentially allow unauthorized users to gain admin access.

HTTP requests for URLs with trailing newlines could bypass an upstream access control based on URL paths.
A vulnerability was found in the way Satellite 6 installer logs the calls to Candlepins cpdb. The /var/log/candlepin/cpdb.log log file permissions allows a non privileged user to read credentials information from the log files.

In Foreman it was discovered that the delete compute resource operation, when executed from the Foreman API, leads to the disclosure of the plaintext password or token for the affected compute resource. A malicious user with the "deletecomputeresource" permission can use this flaw to take control over compute resources managed by foreman. Versions before 1.20.3, 1.21.1, 1.22.0 are vulnerable.

It was discovered that the DNS client implementation in the JNDI component of OpenJDK did not use random source ports when sending out DNS queries. This would make it easier for a remote attacker to spoof responses to those queries.
It was discovered that the I18n component of OpenJDK could use an untrusted search path when loading resource bundle classes. A local attacker could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary code as another local user by making their Java application load an attacker controlled class file.
It was discovered that the LdapLoginModule class in the LDAP component of OpenJDK failed to properly encode special characters in user names when adding them to LDAP search query. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to manipulate LDAP queries performed by the LdapLoginModule class.
It was discovered that the Hotspot component of OpenJDK failed to properly validate uses of the invokeinterface Java Virtual Machine instruction. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions.
