NVD Description

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

FreeIPA 4.0.x before 4.0.5 and 4.1.x before 4.1.1, when 2FA is enabled, allows remote attackers to bypass the password requirement of the two-factor authentication leveraging an enabled OTP token, which triggers an anonymous bind.
