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: execution environment credential foreign key is not use-permission checked, allowing an organization execution-environment admin to bind and disclose another organization's container registry credential (cross-tenant credential disclosure)

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-controller. When creating or editing an execution environment, the controller does not verify that the requesting user has use permission on the container registry credential referenced by the execution environment; it validates...

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: 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-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: instance install_bundle issues 10-year, non-revocable receptor mesh-CA certificates for caller-chosen (and case-variant impersonating) hostnames

A flaw was found in the automation-controller instance install-bundle endpoint. When a System Administrator downloads an execution/hop node's install bundle, the controller signs an X.509 certificate with the receptor mesh certificate authority in which the Common Name, DNS...

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: 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...

Automation-Controller: automation-controller: Kubernetes service account token exfiltration via HashiCorp Vault credential SSRF

A flaw was found in the AAP Controller's HashiCorp Vault credential plugin. The kubernetesauth function in awxplugins/credentials/hashivault.py reads the controller pod's Kubernetes service account token and sends it to an attacker-controlled URL when a HashiCorp Vault Secret Lookup credential wi...

automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: JobJobEventsChildrenSummary RBAC bypass exposes cross-tenant job event tree structure

JobJobEventsChildrenSummary view has no model/parentmodel. ModelAccessPermission.checkgetpermissions falls through returns True for any authenticated user. The view uses raw getobjector404Job, pk without DRF object-level permission check. Zero-privilege user reads event tree structure,...

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: 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: view_jobtemplate to execute privilege escalation via host_config_key exposure and X-Forwarded-For spoofing of provisioning-callback host match

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. The provisioning-callback secret hostconfigkey is exposed to users holding only the read-level viewjobtemplate permission -- both in the job template API representation and in the activity stream -- and the...

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: 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: 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: 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: SystemJob extra_vars.days argument injection into uncontainerized control-plane awx-manage process

An argument-injection flaw was found in the Ansible Automation Platform automation-controller system-job subsystem. The system-job template launch endpoint stores a user-supplied "days" variable without running the integer validation defined elsewhere for that field, and the dispatcher flattens t...

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...
