However, it is important to note that these types of attacks can happen in any software configuration management system. There are a few things you can do to protect your environment. First, you want to make sure that your Puppet server is running the latest version of the module. When upgrading your instance of Puppet, you also want to make sure that you upgrade the puppetlabs-mysql module to the latest version as well. If you aren’t sure which version of Puppet you are running, you can run the following command in your Puppet console: puppet agent --info Another best practice to protect your environment from these type of injection attacks is to always validate incoming data before you use it in your manifests or code.
