SaltStack reports multiple security vulnerabilities in Salt
CVE-2021-3197: The Salt-API.s SSH client is vulnerable to a shell injection by including ProxyCommand in an argument, or via ssh_options provided in an API request.
CVE-2021-25281: The Salt-API does not have eAuth credentials for the wheel_async client.
CVE-2021-25282: The salt.wheel.pillar_roots.write method is vulnerable to directory traversal.
CVE-2021-25283: The jinja renderer does not protect against server-side template injection attacks.
CVE-2021-25284: webutils write passwords in cleartext to /var/log/salt/minion

CVE-2020-35662: Several places where Salt was not verifying the SSL cert by default.
CVE-2021-3144: eauth Token can be used once after expiration.
CVE-2020-28972: Code base not validating SSL/TLS certificate of the server, which might allow attackers to obtain sensitive information via a man-in-the-middle attack
CVE-2020-28243: Local Privilege Escalation in the Minion.
