Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Command Injection. If a user is trying to put templates in multi-line yaml strings and the facts being handled don't routinely include special template characters, then their controller will be vulnerable to a template injection through the facts used in template.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.9.23 or higher.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. A flaw was found in the use of insufficiently random values in Ansible. Two random password lookups of the same length generate the equal value as the template caching action for the same file since no re-evaluation happens. The highest threat from this vulnerability would be that all passwords are exposed at once for the file.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.9.6 or higher.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. When managing kubernetes using the k8s module, sensitive parameters such as passwords and tokens are passed to kubectl from the command line, not using an environment variable or an input configuration file. This will disclose passwords and tokens from process list and no_log directive from debug module would not have any effect, making these secrets being disclosed on stdout and log files.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.9.7, 2.8.11, 2.7.17 or higher.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.8.14, 2.9.12 or higher.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Race Condition. This flaw refers to the incomplete fix for CVE-2020-1733 insecure temporary directory when running become_user from become directive. This vulnerability is not mitigated fully as there are race conditions from the original flaw could still happen on systems using ACLs and FUSE filesystems.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.9.10, 2.8.13 or higher.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Credential Exposure. When using modules which decrypt vault files such as assemble, script, unarchive, win_copy, aws_s3 or copy modules. The temporary directory is created in /tmp leaves the secrets unencrypted. On Operating Systems in which /tmp is not a tmpfs but part of the root partition, the directory is only cleared on boot and the decryp remains when the host is switched off. The system will be vulnerable when the system is not running.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.7.17, 2.8.11, 2.9.7 or higher.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE). It allows using ansible _facts as a subkey of itself and promoting it to a variable when inject is enabled, overwriting the ansible_facts after the clean.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.7.17, 2.8.9, 2.9.6 or higher.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Directory Traversal. An attacker could intercept the module, inject a new path, and then choose a new destination path on the controller node.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.7.17, 2.8.11, 2.9.7 or higher.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. When a user executes ansible-vault edit, another user on the same computer can read the old and new secret, as it is created in a temporary file with mkstemp and the returned file descriptor is closed and the method write_data is called to write the existing secret in the file. This method will delete the file before recreating it insecurely.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.7.17, 2.8.11, 2.9.7 or higher.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution. A flaw was found in Ansible Engine when the module package or service is used and the parameter 'use' is not specified. If a previous task is executed with a malicious user, the module sent can be selected by the attacker using the ansible facts file.

Both package and service modules use facts to determine the name of the module to run if use is not passed to the module. The ansible_facts['pkg_mgr'] and ansible_facts['service_mgr'] facts could be set to another module name or a module name installed in a collection such as ansible_collections.namespace.name./tmp/reverse-shell, which would allow arbitrary code execution on the managed node.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. When a file is moved using atomic_move primitive as the file mode cannot be specified. This sets the destination files world-readable if the destination file does not exist and if the file exists, the file could be changed to have less restrictive permissions before the move. This could lead to the disclosure of sensitive data.

Upgrade ansible to version 2.7.17, 2.8.11, 2.9.7 or higher.

ansible is a simple IT automation system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Race Condition. A race condition flaw exists when running a playbook with an unprivileged become user. When Ansible needs to run a module with become user, the temporary directory is created in /var/tmp. This directory is created with umask 77 && mkdir -p <dir>;. This operation does not fail if the directory already exists and is owned by another user. An attacker could take advantage to gain control of the become user as the target directory can be retrieved by iterating /proc/<pid>/cmdline.
