CVSS v3.1 |
| A remote code execution vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation. Insufficient bounds validation in the AV1 encoder's SVC (Scalable Video Coding) layer ID control allows an attacker to supply crafted video frame pixels that overlap with internal encoder layer context structures. In fork-based video processing services, an attacker can use this to hijack the cyclic refresh map pointer, brute-force the process base address via a crash oracle, and redirect control flow to achieve arbitrary command execution. Exploitation requires the target service to use libaom with SVC encoding enabled and accept attacker-supplied video frames. |
| A heap-buffer-overflow read vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation. A missing bounds check in the SVC (Scalable Video Coding) layer ID control function allows setting a spatial_layer_id exceeding the configured number of layers. This causes an out-of-bounds heap read of approximately 40,728 bytes when computing a layer context array index. An attacker who can influence SVC encoder parameters in a network-facing service could exploit this for information disclosure (heap content leak) or denial of service (segmentation fault from hitting unmapped memory). |
| An arbitrary address write vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation. A missing bounds check in the SVC (Scalable Video Coding) layer ID control function allows an attacker to inject an arbitrary pointer into the cyclic refresh map field via crafted image pixel values. The encoder then writes approximately 1,200 bytes at the attacker-controlled address. This is fully deterministic and does not require a separate information leak. An attacker who can supply frames to a network-facing libaom encoder with SVC enabled could exploit this for denial of service or potential code execution. |
| A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation. A flaw in the AV1 encoder's Look-Ahead Processing (LAP) mode causes the first-pass stats ring buffer wrap-around guard to be bypassed when g_lag_in_frames is set to 1 or higher. This results in a 232-byte out-of-bounds write on every encoded frame after the second, corrupting adjacent heap objects. An attacker who can influence encoder configuration in a transcoding service or WebRTC session could exploit this to cause a denial of service (process crash) or potentially achieve code execution. |
| A flaw was found in the Level of Authentication enforcement mechanism of Keycloak, an identity and access management solution. The issue occurs when a client specifically requires a higher security level for a user who already has an active session at a lower level. Due to a logic error in how session re-evaluations are handled, Keycloak may incorrectly issue a token at the lower security level instead of enforcing the required higher level, potentially allowing unauthorized access to sensitive resources that rely on these security claims. |
| A flaw was found in the user update mechanism of the Keycloak Admin REST API. When Fine-Grained Admin Permissions are enabled, the system fails to check for specific password reset authorizations during a general user profile update. This allows a delegated administrator, who should be restricted from resetting passwords, to change a user's credentials and take over their account. |
| LaunchConfigurationBaseSerializer.scm_branch has no
validate_scm_branch() leading-dash check, unlike
Project/JobTemplate/JobLaunch serializers. Schedule and
WFJT Node accept --upload-pack=/bin/id as scm_branch.
Currently blocked at runtime by jobs.py:1502 ValueError
check (defense-in-depth), but the API validation gap
means sole reliance on a task-layer guard. Refactoring
that guard away would promote this to RCE. |
| RunAdHocCommand.build_args() appends limit as bare
positional (args.append(limit)) instead of using
args.extend(['-l', limit]) like RunJob. A limit beginning
with - is parsed as an ansible CLI option. Currently
limited to short-circuit flags (--version, --help) since
injected element displaces required pattern positional.
Would escalate if ansible-core ever defaults pattern. |
| A server-side request forgery flaw was found in the Ansible Automation Platform
automation-controller email notification backend. The email backend passes the user-supplied SMTP
host and port from a notification template directly to the SMTP client without validating that
the target is not an internal, loopback, link-local, or reserved address. An authenticated user
with organization notification-admin permission can create or modify an email notification
template pointing at an arbitrary internal address, trigger a test, and have the controller task
process open a raw TCP connection to that address. The resulting connection error is reflected
back through the notification record, providing a three-state internal port-scan oracle (open,
closed, filtered) over the control-plane's cluster network, including the in-cluster Kubernetes
API. When a shared organization template holds a stored SMTP password, redirecting the host can
also cause that credential to be transmitted to an attacker-controlled server. |
| An argument-injection flaw was found in the Ansible Automation Platform automation-controller
system-job subsystem. The system-job template launch endpoint stores a user-supplied "days"
variable without running the integer validation defined elsewhere for that field, and the
dispatcher flattens the management-command argument list into a single string with spaces before
the job runner re-splits it, so spaces in the value become additional command-line arguments.
Because system jobs are executed in-process on the control node without the container isolation
applied to all other job types, an authenticated user with superuser privileges can inject
arbitrary arguments — including Python's path option — into the control-plane awx-manage process,
controlling its argument vector and the first entry of its module search path. Full remote code
execution requires an additional import gadget that is not present in the current management
commands, so the demonstrated impact is argument injection with control of the process search
path rather than confirmed code execution. |
| A flaw was found in the Ansible Automation Platform automation-controller. The unauthenticated
Bitbucket Data Center webhook receiver skips HMAC signature verification for diagnostics:ping
events after it has already looked up the target template, causing the endpoint to return HTTP
200 for a template that has a Bitbucket DC webhook configured and HTTP 403 otherwise. An
unauthenticated remote attacker can use this response discrepancy as an oracle to enumerate
which Job Template and Workflow Job Template IDs have Bitbucket DC webhooks configured, without
knowing the secret webhook_key. |
| A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-
controller. Survey questions of type password are write-only and stored
encrypted, displayed only as a placeholder on read. When a schedule or
workflow job template node is revalidated against a tightened survey
specification, the controller decrypts the stored password and includes its
plaintext value in the minimum/maximum length validation error message
returned in the HTTP response. A user with the delegated JobTemplate Admin
role can tighten the survey length constraint and trigger revalidation of a
schedule or node created by another, higher-privileged user, thereby
recovering that user's stored password in plaintext. |
| A flaw was found in Ansible Automation Platform's automation-controller (AWX).
The Bulk Job Launch API (POST /api/v2/bulk/job_launch/) authorizes the
requested instance_groups with only a read-level permission check, whereas the
standard single-job launch path requires use-level permission on the same
field. A principal that holds read (but not use) permission on an instance
group -- for example the built-in read-only System Auditor role -- together
with execute permission on a job template can launch bulk jobs onto instance
groups they are not authorized to use, bypassing execution-placement
isolation. |
| StringListPathField.to_internal_value() calls
os.path.exists() on unbounded user-supplied paths.
200 vs 400 response reveals existence of arbitrary
absolute paths on the controller-web pod. Tenant
superuser can confirm /etc/tower/SECRET_KEY, k8s
service-account token, receptor sockets, ConfigMap
mount points. Mainly impactful on managed AAP
(ansiblecloud.com) where tenant admin != host admin. |
| /api/v2/config/ is protected only by IsAuthenticated.
license_info (account_number, subscription_id, pool_id,
sku, support_level, instance counts) returned to any
authenticated user. The superuser/auditor gate only covers
project_base_dir/project_local_paths/custom_virtualenvs,
not license_info. Enables social engineering against
Red Hat support and estate sizing reconnaissance. |
| HostList.list() catches bare Exception and returns str(e)
verbatim. Via host_filter, any authenticated user triggers
Django FieldError (leaking complete Host model relation
graph including internal reverse accessors) or PostgreSQL
DataError (leaking raw database error strings). Two
primitives: credential__search=x dumps ORM schema,
name__regex=[bad reflects PostgreSQL errors. |
| URLModificationMiddleware resolves named-URL lookups
against unfiltered Model.objects before RBAC. The 403→404
shim only rewrites 403 responses, leaving the pk=0 miss
path with a different 404 detail string. Differential
"Not found." vs "No <Model> matches..." reveals whether
a named resource (org, credential, inventory, host) exists
anywhere on the platform. Enables cross-tenant internal
hostname enumeration. |
| A container privilege escalation flaw was found in certain Ansible Automation Platform images. This issue arises from the /etc/passwd file being created with group-writable permissions during the build process. In certain conditions, an attacker who can execute commands within an affected container, even as a non-root user, can leverage their membership in the root group to modify the /etc/passwd file. This vulnerability allows an attacker to add a new user with any arbitrary UID, including UID 0, gaining full root privileges within the container. |
| A flaw was found in the AAP Controller's HashiCorp Vault credential plugin. The kubernetes_auth() function in awx_plugins/credentials/hashivault.py reads the controller pod's Kubernetes service account token and sends it to an attacker-controlled URL when a HashiCorp Vault Secret Lookup credential with kubernetes_role authentication is tested. An authenticated attacker with credential-creation privileges can exfiltrate the service account token, gaining Kubernetes API access to the control plane namespaces with full pod CRUD and secret read permissions, including database credentials and the Django SECRET_KEY. |
| A flaw was found in Ansible Automation Platform's automation-controller. The custom
Credential Type environment-variable injector validates variable names against a
deny-list (an ANSIBLE_* prefix check plus a fixed ENV_BLOCKLIST) that omits
process-hijacking loader variables such as BASH_ENV, ENV, LD_PRELOAD, LD_LIBRARY_PATH,
PYTHONSTARTUP and GIT_SSH_COMMAND. Combined with the credential file injector, a
privileged user can write an attacker-controlled script into the execution environment
and point BASH_ENV at it, obtaining arbitrary code execution inside the
execution-environment container for any job that attaches a credential of that type. |
