Overview

ipa is an integrated security information management solution.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. The way that FreeIPA's batch processing API logged operations included passing user passwords in clear text on FreeIPA masters. Batch processing of commands with passwords as arguments or options is not performed by default in FreeIPA but is possible by third-party components. An attacker having access to system logs on FreeIPA masters could use this flaw to produce log file content with passwords exposed.
