[ CVE-2026-71464 · Published 23 Sep 2026 ]

Vulnerability in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 for RHEL 8

CVSS 3.1 EPSS <1%1 agency advisoryNo fix listed yet

[ Description ]Official description

LaunchConfigurationBaseSerializer.scm_branch has no validate_scm_branch() leading-dash check, unlike Project/JobTemplate/JobLaunch serializers. Schedule and WFJT Node accept --upload-pack=/bin/id as scm_branch. Currently blocked at runtime by jobs.py:1502 ValueError check (defense-in-depth), but the API validation gap means sole reliance on a task-layer guard. Refactoring that guard away would promote this to RCE.
