CVE-2023-5455: Ipa: invalid csrf protection

Description

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.

Affected products

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: FreeIPA ipa 4.10.3, 4.6.10, 4.9.14. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
