Fixed In Version: ipa 4-11-1
Doc Type: If docs needed, set a value
Doc Text:
A Cross-site request forgery vulnerability exists in ipa/session/login_password in all supported versions of IPA. This flaw allows an attacker to trick the user into submitting a request that could perform actions as the user, resulting in a loss of confidentiality and system integrity. During community penetration testing it was found that for certain HTTP end-points FreeIPA does not ensure CSRF protection. Due to implementation details one cannot use this flaw for reflection of a cookie representing already logged-in user. An attacker would always have to go through a new authentication attempt.

Description Sandipan Roy 2023-10-09 09:24:32 UTC 
IPA uses the HTTP Referer header to prevent CSRF attacks but it is not applied universally. Notably, the URI ipa/session/login_password is not protected.

A third party may trick a valid user into leaving their credentials into a form and then steal a resulting cookie from a redirect to the freeipa login page.

This affects all supported versions of IPA.
