Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Improper input validation
EUVDB-ID: #VU6639
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 8.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9587,CVE-2017-7466
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing responses, send by clients to Ansible server. A remote client can send a specially crafted response and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

2) Improper input validation
EUVDB-ID: #VU6640
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 7.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-7481
CWE-ID:
CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing responses for lookup() calls. A remote client can can inject unicode strings which may then be parsed by the jinja2 templating system resulting in code execution.Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
