Overview
salt is a new approach to infrastructure management built on a dynamic communication bus. Salt can be used for data-driven orchestration, remote execution for any infrastructure, configuration management for any app stack, and much more.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Command Injection via the on demand pillar process when a specially crafted git URL is provided. An attacker can execute arbitrary commands on the master with the same privileges as the master process by exploiting access to a minion key.
