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: Credential Type env-injector deny-list omits process-hijacking variables (BASH_ENV/LD_PRELOAD) allowing code execution in the execution environment

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 ENVBLOCKLIST that omits process-hijacking loader variables such as BASHENV, ENV,...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: write-only survey password recovered in plaintext via Schedule/WorkflowJobTemplateNode survey min/max validation error message

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,...

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: bulk job launch allows setting a workflow node's job reference to an arbitrary unified job, enabling a low-privileged user to cancel and read metadata of jobs in other organizations

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. The bulk job launch endpoint builds workflow job nodes from client input using a serializer that leaves the node's job reference -- a field normally set by the workflow task manager after it spawns a child job --...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: host_filter SmartFilter ORM traversal exposes JobEvent/AdHocCommandEvent event_data and stdout to users without permission on the job, enabling blind character-by-character extraction of job output (cross-tenant information disclosure)

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-controller. The hostfilter query parameter on the hosts list API is parsed into a raw Django ORM filter whose lookup path is validated only against a sensitive-field blocklist, with no authorization check on the database relatio...

automation-controller: automation-controller: unauthenticated /api/v2/ping/ discloses automation-mesh instance topology and instance-group membership

A flaw was found in the automation-controller API. The unauthenticated health-check endpoint /api/v2/ping/ ApiV2PingView, AllowAny over-serializes RBAC-gated automation-mesh data into its anonymous response, exposing the full instance inventory node hostnames, node types, UUIDs, heartbeats,...

automation-controller: automation-controller: unauthenticated 200-vs-403 oracle in Bitbucket Data Center webhook receiver enumerates webhook-enabled job templates

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...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: Schedule and WorkflowJobTemplateNode scm_branch prompt bypasses leading-dash git-argument guard

LaunchConfigurationBaseSerializer.scmbranch has no validatescmbranch leading-dash check, unlike Project/JobTemplate/JobLaunch serializers. Schedule and WFJT Node accept --upload-pack=/bin/id as scmbranch. Currently blocked at runtime by jobs.py:1502 ValueError check defense-in-depth, but the API...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: CUSTOM_VENV_PATH setting provides filesystem path-existence oracle on control pod

StringListPathField.tointernalvalue 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/SECRETKEY, k8s service-account token, receptor sockets, ConfigMap mount...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: unauthenticated debug scheduler-trigger endpoints (AllowAny, routed without DEBUG guard) allow advisory-lock starvation of job dispatch (DoS)

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. Four debug views that trigger the internal task, dependency, and workflow schedulers are configured to allow any user including unauthenticated clients and are routed in production builds because their URL include i...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: Project scm_url argument injection into `git ls-remote --upload-pack` yields RCE on the controller-task control-plane pod

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. The Project scmurl field is not validated against values that begin with a dash and is stored and passed verbatim to the git SCM module. Because the module runs git ls-remote with the URL as a positional argument an...

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...

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: 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: CredentialType injector validation renders attacker-supplied Jinja2 templates synchronously in the web worker, allowing uncontrolled resource consumption (denial of service) and an unhandled-exception (500) via /api/controller/v2/credential_types/

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-controller. When a custom credential type is created or updated, the injector configuration is validated by rendering each attacker-supplied Jinja2 template synchronously inside the web request worker, with no limit on iteration...

automation-controller: automation-controller: client IP spoofing in audit/access logs via unrestricted X-Forwarded-For trust

A flaw was found in the Ansible Automation Platform automation-controller. In the shipped production configuration, the Controller trusts the client-supplied X-Forwarded-For header as the request's client IP without verifying that it originated from a trusted proxy, and selects the leftmost...

automation-controller: automation-controller: WorkflowJobNode.ancestor_artifacts lacks prevent_search, exposing no_log set_stats artifacts via ORM-traversal count-oracle

A flaw was found in the Ansible Automation Platform automation-controller. The WorkflowJobNode.ancestorartifacts database column, which stores the raw merged setstats artifacts propagated between workflow nodes, is not wrapped in preventsearch and is therefore accepted for arbitrary field lookups...
