An attacker could use that to extract sensitive information,\nexecute abritrary code or crash the server. (CVE-2018-15751)\n\nIt was discovered that Salt is vulnerable to command injection. This allows\nan unauthenticated attacker with network access to the API endpoint to\nexecute arbitrary code on the salt-api host. (CVE-2019-17361)\n\nIt was discovered that Salt incorrectly validated method calls and\nsanitized paths.
