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: 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: 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: 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-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: 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: 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: 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: format string injection in the API 4XX error log setting discloses Django SECRET_KEY and database credentials to an administrator

A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation- controller. The setting that formats the log message emitted for API 4XX errors is an administrator-controlled Python format-string template that is rendered with a live user object as an argument. Because Python string...

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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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...
