Descriptions

An issue was discovered in SaltStack Salt before 2019.2.4 and 3000 before 3000.2. The salt-master process ClearFuncs class does not properly validate method calls. This allows a remote user to access some methods without authentication. These methods can be used to retrieve user tokens from the salt master and/or run arbitrary commands on salt minions.

Se ha descubierto un fallo de salto de archivo en todas las versiones de ansible-engine 2.9.x anteriores a la versión 2.9.7, cuando se ejecuta una instalación de una colección ansible-galaxy. Al extraer un archivo .tar.gz de la colección, el directorio es creado sin sanear el nombre del archivo. Un atacante podría aprovechar para sobrescribir cualquier archivo dentro del sistema.

Saltstack version 3000.1 suffers from a remote code execution vulnerability.

SaltStack Salt contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the salt-master process ClearFuncs due to improperly validating method calls. The vulnerability allows a remote user to access some methods without authentication, which can be used to retrieve user tokens from the salt master and/or run commands on salt minions. Salt users who follow fundamental internet security guidelines and best practices are not affected by this vulnerability.
