Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-0448-01 – Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is the company’s cloud computing Platform-as-a-Service solution designed for on-premise or private cloud deployments. Ansible is a SSH-based configuration management, deployment, and task execution system. The openshift-ansible packages contain Ansible code and playbooks for installing and upgrading OpenShift Container Platform 3. Security Fix: An input validation vulnerability was found in Ansible’s handling of data sent from client systems. An attacker with control over a client system being managed by Ansible and the ability to send facts back to the Ansible server could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code on the Ansible server using the Ansible server privileges.
