DISPUTED FreeIPA 4.x with API version 2.213 allows a remote authenticated users to bypass intended account-locking restrictions via an unlock action with an old session ID (for the same user account) that had been created for an earlier session. NOTE: Vendor states that issue does not exist in product and does not recognize this report as a valid security concern.

An XSS flaw was reported in FreeIPA 4.x that could allow an administrator with lower privileges (such as sudo rights) to escalate their privileges to full administrator.

Earlier versions of FreeIPA/IPA do not suffer from this flaw.

Statement:

This issue did not affect the versions of IPA as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 or 7 as they do not include the vulerable Web UI code.
