NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ipa-client package and not the ipa-client package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The cert_revoke command in FreeIPA does not check for the "revoke certificate" permission, which allows remote authenticated users to revoke arbitrary certificates by leveraging the "retrieve certificate" permission.
