CVE-2026-84717
Description
A flaw was found in the Ansible Automation Platform automation-controller. The unauthenticated Bitbucket Data Center webhook receiver skips HMAC signature verification for diagnostics:ping events after it has already looked up the target template, causing the endpoint to return HTTP 200 for a template that has a Bitbucket DC webhook configured and HTTP 403 otherwise. An unauthenticated remote attacker can use this response discrepancy as an oracle to enumerate which Job Template and Workflow Job Template IDs have Bitbucket DC webhooks configured, without knowing the secret webhook_key.
Statement
This flaw is an unauthenticated information-disclosure (target enumeration) weakness in the automation-controller Bitbucket Data Center webhook receiver. Confidentiality impact is limited to the existence and webhook configuration of template IDs; no secret webhook_key, credential, or payload content is exposed, and the ping code path performs no action (integrity and availability are not affected). The correct fix is to make the unsigned diagnostics:ping response independent of whether a matching template exists — either by performing the ping/is_ignored_request short-circuit before get_object(), or by requiring a valid X-Hub-Signature for ping as well.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
