Symlink-following file overwrite on the Ansible control node is possible in ansible-core when a user runs `ansible-galaxy collection install` against a crafted collection tarball, because the archive extractor validates member paths with lexical normalization (os.path.abspath) instead of resolving symlinks (os.path.realpath) and performs no containment check on symlink-typed directory members before creating them, letting chained symlink entries redirect a subsequent file member outside the destination directory. The flaw (CWE-59, CVSS 8.8, vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) is a bypass of the fix for CVE-2020-10691 and requires the victim to actively install the malicious collection, so an attacker can write arbitrary files with the privileges of the ansible-galaxy user and potentially achieve code execution on the control node. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV; affected deployments include ansible-core 2.x as shipped in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2 and numerous other Red Hat products, and no patched version is identified in the supplied intelligence, which currently cites only the Red Hat CVE page and Bugzilla 2531646.
Authenticated but low-privileged users of Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2 can bypass the automation-controller's sanitize_jinja() input-validation guard and have ansible-core evaluate attacker-supplied Jinja inside the execution environment, yielding arbitrary command execution and disclosure of secrets belonging to credentials the attacker cannot normally read. The flaw is exploitable remotely with no user interaction (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N per independent assessment) and requires only a controller account able to set one of the affected launch-time fields. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV; priority is bounded by the required authenticated foothold and the niche deployment footprint.
Remote code execution via unsafe Python pickle deserialization in the community.general Ansible collection's memcached fact cache plugin gives unauthenticated network-adjacent attackers full control of the Ansible controller. Despite documenting JSON as its storage format, the plugin delegates serialization entirely to python-memcached, which transparently pickles Python objects on write and unpickles them on read - a format that executes arbitrary Python code during deserialization. Because memcached has no native authentication and Ansible fact cache keys are derived from predictable hostnames, any attacker who can write to the target memcached instance can inject a malicious payload that executes when the controller next reads cached facts. No public exploit or CISA KEV entry has been identified at time of analysis.
Authenticated JumpServer users who hold permission to create or execute Ansible-based automation tasks can inject attacker-controlled template expressions that the automation rendering engine evaluates, invoking sensitive Ansible lookups (file, pipe, env, password) that disclose files or environment values and may permit limited command execution under the privileges of the automation process. All JumpServer deployments prior to 4.10.17-lts are affected, but exploitation requires operator-level privilege (CVSS vector PR:H) and remains confined to the automation process - it grants neither unauthenticated access nor reach into unrelated JumpServer assets. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is fixed in version 4.10.17-lts.
Ansible Automation Platform 2's gateway permits an authenticated gateway administrator (CVSS PR:H) to create a new service key for the Controller service cluster through the API, even though service-key creation is supposed to occur only via the installer-provisioned path; the resulting key is cryptographically indistinguishable from a legitimate one, so it can be used to mint a service-authentication token that impersonates the Controller service. When the non-default gateway OIDC workload-identity endpoint is enabled (FEATURE_OIDC_WORKLOAD_IDENTITY_ENABLED) and a downstream resource server such as HashiCorp Vault trusts the gateway's OIDC signing key, the attacker can induce the gateway to sign Workload Identity Tokens for arbitrary Controller workloads and retrieve the AAP credentials bound to that workload, crossing the administrator's authorization boundary to disclose secrets (C:H, no integrity or availability impact). Exploitation requires admin privileges plus that specific non-default trust configuration, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; the defect is access-gated rather than broadly exploitable.
Unconditional TLS certificate validation disabling in the OCAPI modules (ocapi_command, ocapi_info) of the community.general Ansible collection exposes HTTP Basic-Auth credentials to interception and permits response tampering against any managed OCAPI storage or enclosure device. Because the shared request helper disables certificate validation on every call with no parameter to re-enable it, a network-adjacent attacker performing a MITM attack can present any certificate, silently capture credentials, and inject falsified device responses back to the Ansible controller. Red Hat bundles the affected collection in Ceph Storage 5 and 9 and OpenStack Platform 17.1 and 18.0; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
Ansible Automation Platform's Event-Driven Ansible exposes inventory passwords in plain text when debug verbosity is enabled during rulebook activation, affecting both standard debug actions and Event Streams configurations. Authenticated users with access to debug-enabled ruleebooks can retrieve plaintext credentials through logs or console output. With CVSS 6.5 and EPSS 0.26% (percentile 49%), this represents moderate severity; no active exploitation has been confirmed, but the low complexity and authenticated-only requirement (PR:L) make this a practical concern for organizations using debug-level logging in production environments.
