Hi, The following vulnerability was published for freeipa. CVE-2024-3183[0]: | A vulnerability was found in FreeIPA in a way when a Kerberos TGS- | REQ is encrypted using the client’s session key. This key is | different for each new session, which protects it from brute force | attacks. However, the ticket it contains is encrypted using the | target principal key directly. For user principals, this key is a | hash of a public per-principal randomly-generated salt and the | user’s password. If a principal is compromised it means the | attacker would be able to retrieve tickets encrypted to any | principal, all of them being encrypted by their own key directly. By | taking these tickets and salts offline, the attacker could run brute | force attacks to find character strings able to decrypt tickets when | combined to a principal salt (i.e. find the principal’s password). https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2270685 If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
