Vigil@nce - FreeIPA: private KRA key reading
October 2015 by Vigil@nce
This bulletin was written by Vigil@nce : http://vigilance.fr/offer
SYNTHESIS OF THE VULNERABILITY
A local attacker can read the private KRA key of FreeIPA, in order
to obtain sensitive information.
Impacted products: FreeIPA.
Severity: 1/4.
Creation date: 09/10/2015.
DESCRIPTION OF THE VULNERABILITY
The FreeIPA product can be configured with KPA (Password Vault).
In this case, the ipa-kra-install command stores the private key
and the certificate in the /etc/httpd/alias/kra-agent.pem file.
However, this file can be read by all local users.
A local attacker can therefore read the private KRA key of
FreeIPA, in order to obtain sensitive information.
