NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream krb5-libs package and not the krb5-libs package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

A Cross-site request forgery vulnerability exists in ipa/session/login_password in all supported versions of IPA. This flaw allows an attacker to trick the user into submitting a request that could perform actions as the user, resulting in a loss of confidentiality and system integrity. During community penetration testing it was found that for certain HTTP end-points FreeIPA does not ensure CSRF protection. Due to implementation details one cannot use this flaw for reflection of a cookie representing already logged-in user. An attacker would always have to go through a new authentication attempt.
