According to the version of the sssd packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

  - A vulnerability was found in sssd where, if a user was     configured with no home directory set, sssd would     return '/' (the root directory) instead of '' (the     empty string / no home directory). This could impact     services that restrict the user's filesystem access to     within their home directory through     chroot().(CVE-2019-3811)

An update for sssd is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

The System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) service provides a set of daemons to manage access to remote directories and authentication mechanisms. It also provides the Name Service Switch (NSS) and the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) interfaces toward the system, and a pluggable back-end system to connect to multiple different account sources.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
sssd (1.16.4). (BZ#1658994)

Security Fix(es) :

* sssd: fallback_homedir returns '/' for empty home directories in passwd file (CVE-2019-3811)

* sssd: improper implementation of GPOs due to too restrictive permissions (CVE-2018-16838)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05, has sssd packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A vulnerability was found in sssd. If a user was     configured with no home directory set, sssd would return     '/' (the root directory) instead of '' (the empty string     / no home directory). This could impact services that     restrict the user's filesystem access to within their     home directory through chroot() etc. All versions before     2.1 are vulnerable. (CVE-2019-3811)

  - A flaw was found in sssd Group Policy Objects     implementation. When the GPO is not readable by SSSD due     to a too strict permission settings on the server side,     SSSD will allow all authenticated users to login instead     of denying access. (CVE-2018-16838)
