CVE-2017-12148 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade RHEL:7 ansible-tower-setup to version 0:3.1.5-1.el7at or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2017:3005.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ansible-tower-setup package and not the ansible-tower-setup package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
A flaw was found in Ansible Tower's interface before 3.1.5 and 3.2.0 with SCM repositories. If a Tower project (SCM repository) definition does not have the 'delete before update' flag set, an attacker with commit access to the upstream playbook source repository could create a Trojan playbook that, when executed by Tower, modifies the checked out SCM repository to add git hooks. These git hooks could, in turn, cause arbitrary command and code execution as the user Tower runs as.
