Descriptions

Ipa versions 4.2.x, 4.3.x before 4.3.3 and 4.4.x before 4.4.3 did not properly check the user's permissions while modifying certificate profiles in IdM's certprofile-mod command. An authenticated, unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to modify profiles to issue certificates with arbitrary naming or key usage information and subsequently use such certificates for other attacks.

Ipa en versiones 4.2.x, 4.3.x anteriores a la 4.3.3 y 4.4.x anteriores a la 4.4.3 no comprobaba correctamente los permisos de usuario cuando se modificaban los perfiles de certificados en el comando certprofile-mod de IdM. Un atacante autenticado sin privilegios podría utilizar este fallo para modificar perfiles y enviar certificados con nombres arbitrarios o información de uso de claves y, como consecuencia, utilizar dichos certificados para otros ataques.
