Puppet: SSL protocol downgrade

Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.21 and 3.1.x before 3.1.1, and Puppet Enterprise 2.7.x before 2.7.2, does not properly negotiate the SSL protocol between client and master, which allows remote attackers to conduct SSLv2 downgrade attacks against SSLv3 sessions via unspecified vectors.

Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.21 and 3.1.x before 3.1.1, when running Ruby 1.9.3 or later, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors related to "serialized attributes."

Puppet: HTTP PUT report saving code execution vulnerability

Puppet 2.6.x before 2.6.18 and Puppet Enterprise 1.2.x before 1.2.7 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code on the puppet master, or an agent with puppet kick enabled, via a crafted request for a report.

Puppet: default auth.conf allows authenticated node to submit a report for any other node

The default configuration for puppet masters 0.25.0 and later in Puppet before 2.6.18, 2.7.x before 2.7.21, and 3.1.x before 3.1.1, and Puppet Enterprise before 1.2.7 and 2.7.x before 2.7.2, allows remote authenticated nodes to submit reports for other nodes via unspecified vectors.

Puppet Labs Puppet Enterprise before 2.8.0 does not use a "randomized secret" in the CAS client config file (cas_client_config.yml) when upgrading from older 1.2.x or 2.0.x versions, which allows remote attackers to obtain console access via a crafted cookie.

puppet: remote code execution on master from unauthenticated clients

Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.22 and 3.2.x before 3.2.2, and Puppet Enterprise before 2.8.2, deserializes untrusted YAML, which allows remote attackers to instantiate arbitrary Ruby classes and execute arbitrary code via a crafted REST API call.

Puppet: resource_type service code execution

Unspecified vulnerability in Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.23 and 3.2.x before 3.2.4, and Puppet Enterprise 2.8.x before 2.8.3 and 3.0.x before 3.0.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Ruby programs from the master via the resource_type service. NOTE: this vulnerability can only be exploited utilizing unspecified "local file system access" to the Puppet Master.

Puppet: Local Privilege Escalation/Arbitrary Code Execution

Puppet Module Tool (PMT), as used in Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.23 and 3.2.x before 3.2.4, and Puppet Enterprise 2.8.x before 2.8.3 and 3.0.x before 3.0.1, installs modules with weak permissions if those permissions were used when the modules were originally built, which might allow local users to read or modify those modules depending on the original permissions.

puppet: SSH authorized_keys symlink attack

Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.5, 2.6.x before 2.6.11, and 0.25.x allows local users to modify the permissions of arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the SSH authorized_keys file.

puppet: predictable temporary file using RAL

Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.5, 2.6.x before 2.6.11, and 0.25.x, when running in --edit mode, uses a predictable file name, which allows local users to run arbitrary Puppet code or trick a user into editing arbitrary files.

puppet: MITM by the x509v3 certificate signing

Puppet 2.6.x before 2.6.12 and 2.7.x before 2.7.6, and Puppet Enterprise (PE) Users 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 before 1.2.4, when signing an agent certificate, adds the Puppet master's certdnsnames values to the X.509 Subject Alternative Name field of the certificate, which allows remote attackers to spoof a Puppet master via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack against an agent that uses an alternate DNS name for the master, aka "AltNames Vulnerability."

Puppet 2.6.13 group ID handling issues

The change_user method in the SUIDManager (lib/puppet/util/suidmanager.rb) in Puppet 2.6.x before 2.6.14 and 2.7.x before 2.7.11, and Puppet Enterprise (PE) Users 1.0, 1.1, 1.2.x, 2.0.x before 2.0.3 does not properly manage group privileges, which allows local users to gain privileges via vectors related to (1) the change_user not dropping supplementary groups in certain conditions, (2) changes to the eguid without associated changes to the egid, or (3) the addition of the real gid to supplementary groups.
