According to its self-reported version number, the Puppet Enterprise 3.x install on the remote host is prior to 3.1.3. As a result, it is reportedly affected by an error related to the included LibYAML version, the ‘yaml_parser_scan_tag_uri’ function and YAML tag parsing that could allow a heap-based buffer overflow and potentially arbitrary code execution.
