CVE-2017-7481

ansible: Security issue with lookup return not tainting the jinja2 environment

Published Jul 19, 2018 CVSS 3.1 · 9.8 Critical EPSS 4.7% KEV · Not listed
Description
Ansible before versions 2.3.1.0 and 2.4.0.0 fails to properly mark lookup-plugin results as unsafe. If an attacker could control the results of lookup() calls, they could inject Unicode strings to be parsed by the jinja2 templating system, resulting in code execution. By default, the jinja2 templating language is now marked as 'unsafe' and is not evaluated.
