automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: Notification template Jinja whitelist bypass via conditional gating leaks tracebacks

Notification template Jinja AST whitelist only inspects static Getattr nodes. Dynamic subscripts job'job'+'env' and % if job.id 100 % conditional gating bypass both the AST check and the test-render stub has small job.id. At runtime, the gated branch executes and exceptions write full tracebacks...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller/AWX: Bulk Job Launch checks instance_groups at read level instead of use level, allowing execution-placement authorization bypass

A flaw was found in Ansible Automation Platform's automation-controller AWX. The Bulk Job Launch API POST /api/v2/bulk/joblaunch/ authorizes the requested instancegroups with only a read-level permission check, whereas the standard single-job launch path requires use-level permission on the same...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: the AWX_TASK_ENV setting applies arbitrary environment variables to the control-plane web and task processes, enabling TLS interception of external credentials and code execution

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. The AWXTASKENV setting accepts arbitrary environment variable keys with no restriction, and its values are applied directly to the running automation controller web and task processes rather than only to sandboxed...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: stored cross-site scripting in the job stdout HTML view via ANSI OSC 8 hyperlink sequences (javascript: anchor) enabling session takeover

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. The HTML view of job, ad hoc command, project update, and inventory update standard output escapes HTML metacharacters but does not remove ANSI terminal escape sequences before conversion to HTML. An ANSI OSC 8...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: notification template password fields can be decrypted by a notification-template administrator by replaying encrypted values across subfields, exposing plaintext Slack, PagerDuty, Twilio, AWS SNS and Grafana credentials

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. Notification template password fields are encrypted with a key derived from the secret key, the object primary key, and the field name, but not the subfield name, and the API returns the full ciphertext of a passwor...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: workflow job template node execute permission check bypassed by creating a node with a null unified_job_template and then patching it, allowing a single workflow-admin to execute any other tenant's job template with the victim's credentials (cross-tenant privilege escalation)

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-controller. The execute-permission check on a workflow job template node's unified job template is skipped when the node's currently stored unified job template is empty: the check inspects only the existing value, not the...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: container group pod_spec_override mints the automation-controller ServiceAccount token and mounts control-plane namespace secrets into job pods, bypassing automountServiceAccountToken:false (control-plane secret and identity compromise)

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-controller. A user with the delegated Instance Group Admin role on a container group can set a free-form pod specification override that is deep-merged, without filtering, into every job pod launched on that group. The only...

automation-controller: automation-controller: WorkflowJobTemplate /copy/ deep-copy sanitizer omits instance_groups authorization (InstanceGroup use_role bypass to control-plane)

A flaw was found in the Ansible Automation Platform automation-controller. When a WorkflowJobTemplate is copied, the deep-copy permission sanitizer validates only the inventory, unifiedjobtemplate, and credentials of each cloned node and fails to check the instancegroups and executionenvironment...

automation-controller: automation-controller: incomplete sanitize_jinja() regex allows Jinja template injection into ad-hoc module_args, Machine-credential fields, and Host names, reaching ansible-core templating in the execution environment

A flaw was found in the automation-controller input-validation guard sanitizejinja. The function uses two regular expressions to reject user-supplied Jinja, but the patterns stop at the first interior '' or '%' character, so a Jinja expression containing an inner brace for example an empty dict i...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: Named-URL 404 body oracle enables cross-tenant resource name enumeration

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 matches..." reveals whether a named resource org,...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: Ad-hoc command limit field allows CLI argument injection into ansible executable

RunAdHocCommand.buildargs appends limit as bare positional args.appendlimit 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 patter...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: instance group attachment to schedules and workflow job template nodes checks only read permission, allowing use of restricted (controlplane / other-tenant) instance groups and privilege escalation to control-plane code execution

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. When attaching an instance group to a schedule or a workflow job template node through the dedicated API relationship endpoint, the controller verifies only that the requesting user can read view the instance group,...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: missing use_role authorization on the project signature validation credential foreign key allows a project administrator to bind and use another organization's credential cross-tenant

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. A project has a signature validation credential foreign key used to validate signed project content. Unlike the project's SCM credential, the authorization logic does not verify that the requesting user has use...

automation-controller-container: automation-controller: automation-controller: server-side request forgery via the Thycotic Secret Server external credential plugin test endpoint (caller-controlled server_url, backend executed in the controller web process)

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. The Thycotic Secret Server external credential plugin passes a user-supplied server URL to its SDK without validating the scheme, host, or IP range, and the plugin backend is executed synchronously within the...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: constructed inventory input inventory attachment checks only read permission on the source inventory, allowing a read-only user to clone another tenant's hosts and secrets and run ad hoc commands against them

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. When attaching a source inventory to a constructed inventory through the inputinventories relationship endpoint, the controller verifies only that the requesting user can read the source inventory, rather than that...
