| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-
controller. A project has a signature validation credential foreign key used to
validate signed project content. Unlike the project's SCM credential, the
authorization logic does not verify that the requesting user has use permission
on the referenced credential, and the API field has no validator or type
restriction. An authenticated user holding only the organization project
administrator role can therefore bind an arbitrary credential belonging to
another organization, by its identifier, when creating or updating a project.
The controller discloses that credential's name and type in the project's
summary information and, during project synchronization, decrypts the bound
credential and uses it in the attacker-controlled project's update, allowing a
cross-tenant authorization boundary violation and information disclosure.
