CVE-2017-12169
Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.5)—
It was found that FreeIPA 4.2.0 and later could disclose password hashes to users having the 'System: Read Stage Users' permission. A remote, authenticated attacker could potentially use this flaw to disclose the password hashes belonging to Stage Users. This security issue does not result in disclosure of password hashes belonging to active standard users. NOTE: some developers feel that this report is a suggestion for a design change to Stage User activation, not a statement of a vulnerability.

Un atacante remoto autenticado podría emplear este error para revelar los hashes de contraseña que pertenecen a los usuarios Stage. Este problema de seguridad no resulta en la revelación de hashes de contraseña que pertenecen a usuarios estándar activos. NOTA: algunos desarrolladores creen que este informe es una sugerencia de cambio de diseño de la activación Stage User, no una declaración de vulnerabilidad."
