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 Replay Attack via the request server process when a TLS encrypted transport is not used. An attacker can replay previously captured requests by intercepting and resending them over an unencrypted channel.
