An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-84724 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 for RHEL 8. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-84724/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-84724/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-84724","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-84724/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-84724","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q3jc-p8r9-qrvp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ansible Automation Platform","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated superusers can inject arguments into the control-plane process via system jobs, potentially leading to code execution or privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-88","name":"Improper Neutralization of Argument Delimiters in a Command"}],"description":"An argument-injection flaw was found in the Ansible Automation Platform automation-controller\nsystem-job subsystem.
