NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream sssd package and not the sssd package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

sssd versions from 1.13.0 to before 2.0.0 did not properly restrict access to the infopipe according to the "allowed_uids" configuration parameter. If sensitive information were stored in the user directory, this could be inadvertently disclosed to local attackers.
