Description John Helmert III archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-09-10 11:48:49 UTC 
CVE-2021-21996:

An issue was discovered in SaltStack Salt before 3003.3. A user who has control of the source, and source_hash URLs can gain full file system access as root on a salt minion.

CVE-2021-31607:

In SaltStack Salt 2016.9 through 3002.6, a command injection vulnerability exists in the snapper module that allows for local privilege escalation on a minion. The attack requires that a file is created with a pathname that is backed up by snapper, and that the master calls the snapper.diff function (which executes popen unsafely).
