Descriptions

The safe_eval function in Ansible before 1.5.4 does not properly restrict the code subset, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted instructions.

La función safe_eval en Ansible versiones anteriores a 1.5.4, no restringe apropiadamente el subconjunto de código, lo que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario por medio de instrucciones diseñadas.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Ansible which may allow local privilege escalation. Versions less than 1.6.8 are affected.
