CVE-2014-4967
Published: 18 February 2020
Multiple argument injection vulnerabilities in Ansible before 1.6.7 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging access to an Ansible managed host and providing a crafted fact, as demonstrated by a fact with (1) a trailing " src=" clause, (2) a trailing " temp=" clause, or (3) a trailing " validate=" clause accompanied by a shell command.
From the Ubuntu Security Team
It was discovered that Ansible mishandled certain input. A remote attacker could use this to execute arbitrary code.
