Persistent data access via backend token non-revocation
Published Jun 15, 2026 · Updated Jun 15, 2026
Insufficient session expiration in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform allows remote authenticated users to retain data access after logout. The Ansible Lightspeed backend does not revoke an exfiltrated OAuth access token during logout and continues accepting it until natural expiration. Exploitation requires prior token exfiltration and grants read access to inventories, playbooks, and configuration data associated with that token.
