Improper Authorization

Salt is vulnerable to Improper Authorization. The vulnerability is due to improper authorization due to the master's minionevent method allowing authorized minions to inject arbitrary events into the master's event bus...

Directory Traversal

Salt is vulnerable to a Directory traversal. The vulnerability is due to improper validation of file paths during cache creation, allowing attackers to write or overwrite files outside the intended cache directory...

Remote Code Execution (RCE)

Salt is vulnerable to Remote command execution. The vulnerability is due to improper input validation in the 'on demand' pillar functionality, allowing a specially crafted git URL to trigger arbitrary command execution on the master with elevated privileges...

File Overwrite

Salt is vulnerable to File overwrite. The vulnerability is due to unvalidated input used to construct paths in the VirtKey class when handling “on-demand pillar” data, allowing unauthorized file overwrites in the default configuration...

Improper Authentication

salt is vulnerable to Improper Authentication. The vulnerability is due to improper validation logic in the salt.auth.pki module, which treats the presence of a valid public certificate as sufficient for authentication without requiring the corresponding private key, allows an attacker to bypass...

Authorization Bypass

Salt is vulnerable to an Authorization Bypass. The vulnerability is due to improper validation of minion messages, allowing an attacker with access to a minion key to execute jobs on other minions...

SUSE CVE-2024-38822

Multiple methods in the salt master skip minion token validation. Therefore a misbehaving minion can impersonate another minion...

SUSE CVE-2024-38823

Salt's request server is vulnerable to replay attacks when not using a TLS encrypted transport...

SUSE CVE-2024-38825

The salt.auth.pki module does not properly authenticate callers. The "password" field contains a public certificate which is validated against a CA certificate by the module. This is not pki authentication, as the caller does not need access to the corresponding private key for the authentication...

SUSE CVE-2025-22237

An attacker with access to a minion key can exploit the 'on demand' pillar functionality with a specially crafted git url which could cause and arbitrary command to be run on the master with the same privileges as the master process...

SUSE CVE-2025-22239

Arbitrary event injection on Salt Master. The master's "minionevent" method can be used by and authorized minion to send arbitrary events onto the master's event bus...

CVE-2024-38825

The salt.auth.pki module does not properly authenticate callers. The "password" field contains a public certificate which is validated against a CA certificate by the module. This is not pki authentication, as the caller does not need access to the corresponding private key for the authentication...

CVE-2025-22241

A path traversal flaw was found in the salt project. Unvalidated input could be provided by a minion, which could overwrite or create files in the "pki directory". Mitigation Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product...

CVE-2024-38824

A directory traversal flaw was found in the Salt project. The "recvfile" method can be leveraged to allow arbitrary file writes to the master cache directory. Mitigation Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security...

CVE-2024-38822

Multiple methods in the salt master skip minion token validation. Therefore a misbehaving minion can impersonate another minion. Mitigation Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use...

CVE-2025-22239

Arbitrary event injection on Salt Master. The master's "minionevent" method can be used by and authorized minion to send arbitrary events onto the master's event bus. Mitigation Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product...

GHSA-989C-M532-P2HV Salt's worker process vulnerable to denial of service through file read operation

Worker process denial of service through file read operation. .A vulnerability exists in the Master's “pubret” method which is exposed to all minions. The un-sanitized input value “jid” is used to construct a path which is then opened for reading. An attacker could exploit this vulnerabilities by...

GHSA-4J59-VV55-Q6H3 Salt's salt.auth.pki module does not properly authenticate callers

The salt.auth.pki module does not properly authenticate callers. The "password" field contains a public certificate which is validated against a CA certificate by the module. This is not pki authentication, as the caller does not need access to the corresponding private key for the authentication...

Salt vulnerable to directory traversal attack in minion file cache creation

Directory traversal attack in minion file cache creation. The master's default cache is vulnerable to a directory traversal attack. Which could be leveraged to write or overwrite 'cache' files outside of the cache directory...
