Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
FreeIPA (affected versions not specified)
Description
A privilege escalation from host to domain issue was found in the FreeIPA project. The FreeIPA package fails to validate the uniqueness of the
krbCanonicalName for the admin account by default, allowing users to create services with the same canonical name as the REALM admin. When a successful attack happens, the user can retrieve a Kerberos ticket in the name of this service, containing the admin@REALM credential. This flaw allows an attacker to perform administrative tasks over the REALM, leading to access to sensitive data and sensitive data exfiltration.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
