CVE-2017-2292 -- mcollectiveID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:1900324 | Date: (C)2019-02-27 (M)2023-12-20 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: unix |
Versions of MCollective prior to 2.10.4 deserialized YAML from agents without calling safe_load, allowing the potential for arbitrary code execution on the server. The fix for this is to call YAML.safe_load on input. This has been tested in all Puppet-supplied MCollective plugins, but there is a chance that third-party plugins could rely on this insecure behavior.
