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 Access Restriction Bypass which can allow attackers to substitute arbitrary pillar data, because Salt Masters do not sign pillar data with the minion’s public key.
