[salt-users] 20181024 2018.3.3 Released - Security Advisory

[debian-lts-announce] 20200728 [SECURITY] [DLA 2294-1] salt security update

Two issues have been found in salt, a remote manager to administer servers.

These issues are related to remote hackers bypassing authentication to execute arbitrary commands and getting informations about files on the server

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 2016.11.2+ds-1+deb9u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your salt packages.

For the detailed security status of salt please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/salt
