Authorization Flaw in Ansible Automation Platform by Red Hat
CVE-2025-14025

8.5HIGH

What is CVE-2025-14025?

A security flaw has been identified in the Ansible Automation Platform that improperly handles read-only scoped OAuth2 API tokens. While these tokens should restrict operations to read-only access at the Gateway level, this vulnerability permits them to perform write operations on critical backend services, including Controller, Hub, and EDA. An attacker exploiting this weakness could manipulate data and settings, with their actions governed only by existing role-based access controls (RBAC), potentially leading to unauthorized changes and security breaches.
