Alpine: multiple ansible packages: security update to 2.9.3-r0
high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 403517
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:- A flaw was found in the solaris_zone module from the Ansible Community modules. When setting the name for
the zone on the Solaris host, the zone name is checked by listing the process with the 'ps' bare command
on the remote machine. An attacker could take advantage of this flaw by crafting the name of the zone and
executing arbitrary commands in the remote host. Ansible Engine 2.7.15, 2.8.7, and 2.9.2 as well as
previous versions are affected. (CVE-2019-14904)
- A vulnerability was found in Ansible Engine versions 2.9.x before 2.9.3, 2.8.x before 2.8.8, 2.7.x before
2.7.16 and earlier, where in Ansible's nxos_file_copy module can be used to copy files to a flash or
bootflash on NXOS devices. Malicious code could craft the filename parameter to perform OS command
injections. This could result in a loss of confidentiality of the system among other issues.
