Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Ansible Engine when using the Extract-Zip function from the win_unzip module as the extracted file(s) are not checked if they belong to the destination folder. An attacker could take advantage of this flaw by crafting an archive anywhere in the file system, using a path traversal.

Description Borja Tarraso 2020-02-12 13:37:52 UTC 
Extract-Zip function in win_unzip module does not check if the extracted path belongs to the destination folder. This could lead to path traversal on a crafted archive.

Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine 5.9 is in maintenance phase and we're no longer fixing "Medium" severity CVEs.
Comment 12 Borja Tarraso 2020-02-26 11:38:25 UTC 
Mitigation:

Currently, there is no mitigation for this issue except avoid using the affected win_unzip module when possible.

Comment 16 Hardik Vyas 2020-03-18 16:17:15 UTC 
Red Hat Gluster Storage and Red Hat Ceph Storage no longer maintains its own version of Ansible. The fix will be provided from core Ansible. But we still ship ansible separately for ceph ubuntu.

Comment 24 Yadnyawalk Tale 2020-05-11 09:42:08 UTC 
CloudForms 5.11 do not use ansible-tower and 5.10 only using ansible-tower-venv-ansible atm.
Comment 25 Summer Long 2021-01-14 04:59:29 UTC 
Statement:

Ansible Engine 2.7.16, 2.8.10, and 2.9.6 as well as previous versions are affected.

Ansible Tower 3.4.5, 3.5.5 and 3.6.3 as well as previous versions are affected.

In Red Hat OpenStack Platform, because the flaw has a lower impact,  ansible is not directly customer exposed, and the fix would require a substantial amount of development, no update will be provided at this time for the RHOSP ansible package.
