Descriptions

A flaw was found in IPA, all 4.6.x versions before 4.6.7, all 4.7.x versions before 4.7.4 and all 4.8.x versions before 4.8.3, in the way that FreeIPA's batch processing API logged operations. This included passing user passwords in clear text on FreeIPA masters. Batch processing of commands with passwords as arguments or options is not performed by default in FreeIPA but is possible by third-party components. An attacker having access to system logs on FreeIPA masters could use this flaw to produce log file content with passwords exposed.

Se encontró un fallo en IPA, todas las versiones 4.6.x anteriores a la versión 4.6.7, todas las versiones 4.7.x anteriores a la 4.7.4 y todas las versiones 4.8.x anteriores a 4.8.3, en la manera en que la API de procesamiento por lotes de FreeIPA registró operaciones. Esto incluía pasar contraseñas de usuario en texto sin cifrar en los maestros de FreeIPA. El procesamiento por lotes de comandos con contraseñas como argumentos u opciones no se realiza por defecto en FreeIPA, pero es posible mediante componentes de terceros. Un atacante que tenga acceso a los registros del sistema en los maestros de FreeIPA podría usar este fallo para producir el contenido del archivo de registro con las contraseñas expuestas.
