Description Samuele Negrini 2026-06-30 07:23:18 UTC 
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

A type confusion bug in extop_handle_ldapssotoken_request() (extendop.c) passes a stack pointer (&rc) to ber_printf with format 'i' which expects an integer. The low 32 bits of a stack address are encoded into every SSO token LDAP extended operation response.

Any authenticated non-administrator user can extract partial stack address information. SSO token feature enabled by default with auto-generated secret (Issue #1797). PoC confirmed on Fedora 42: INTEGER=0x8e7faed8 leaked. Reduces stack ASLR entropy but is not a full bypass.
Comment 1 Aoife Moloney 2026-08-17 15:06:30 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 45 development cycle.
Changing version to 45.
