The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 / 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2023:4692 advisory.
Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform provides an enterprise framework for building, deploying and managing IT automation at scale. IT Managers can provide top-down guidelines on how automation is applied to individual teams, while automation developers retain the freedom to write tasks that leverage existing knowledge without the overhead. Ansible Automation Platform makes it possible for users across an organization to share, vet, and manage automation content by means of a simple, powerful, and agentless language.
Security Fix(es):
* automation-controller: python-django: Potential regular expression denial of service vulnerability in EmailValidator/URLValidator (CVE-2023-36053)
* automation-controller: python-django: Potential denial-of-service vulnerability in file uploads (CVE-2023-24580)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
Additional changes for automation controller:
* automation-controller has been updated to 4.4.2 (AAP-14609)
* Changing credential types using the dropdown list in the Launch prompt window no longer causes the screen to disappear. (AAP-11444)
* Upgraded python dependencies which include an upgrade from Django 3.2 to 4.2.3, psycopg2 to psycopg3, additional libraries as needed. Also added a new setting in the UI exposing the ``CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGIN`` settings. (AAP-12345)
* Fixed slow database UPDATE statements on job events table which could cause a task manager timeout.
(AAP-12586)
* Adding new labels to a job through prompting now works as expected. (AAP-14204)
* Added ``noopener`` and ``noreferrer`` to Controller UI links that were missing it. (AAP-14345)
* Fixed the broken User Guide link in the Edit Subscription Details page. (AAP-14375)
* Turned off auto-complete on remaining Controller UI forms that were missing that attribute. (AAP-14442)
* The Add button on credentials is now accessible for users with correct permissions. (AAP-14525)
* Fixed unexpected error with adding a new host while using a manifest with size 10. (AAP-14675)
* Fixed the Trial toggle when using a manifest file. (AAP-14675)
* Applied environment variables from the setting ``AWX_TASK_ENV`` when running credential lookup plugins.
(AAP-14683)
* Interrupted jobs (like canceled jobs) no longer clear facts from hosts, if the job ran on an execution node. (AAP-14878)
* Using a license that is missing a usage attribute no longer returns a 400 error. (AAP-14880)
* Fixed sub-keys under data from HashiCorp Vault Secret Lookup responses to check for secrets, if found.
(AAP-14946)
* Fixed Ansible facts to retry saving to hosts if there is a database deadlock. (AAP-15021)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
