Dependency Hierarchy:

  • ansible-core-2.12.2.tar.gz (Vulnerable Library)

Found in base branch: master

Vulnerability Details

A flaw was found in Ansible. The ansible-core "user" module can allow an unprivileged user to silently create or replace the contents of any file on any system path and take ownership of it when a privileged user executes the "user" module against the unprivileged user's home directory. If the unprivileged user has traversal permissions on the directory containing the exploited target file, they retain full control over the contents of the file as its owner.

Dependency Hierarchy:

  • ansible-core-2.12.2.tar.gz (Vulnerable Library)

Found in base branch: master

Vulnerability Details

A flaw was found in Ansible, where sensitive information stored in Ansible Vault files can be exposed in plaintext during the execution of a playbook. This occurs when using tasks such as include_vars to load vaulted variables without setting the no_log: true parameter, resulting in sensitive data being printed in the playbook output or logs. This can lead to the unintentional disclosure of secrets like passwords or API keys, compromising security and potentially allowing unauthorized access or actions.
