RHBA-2011:1314 - ipa bug fix update

Synopsis

ipa bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated ipa packages that fix a bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

Red Hat Enterprise Identity (IPA) is a centralized authentication, identity management, and authorization solution for both traditional and cloud-based enterprise environments. It integrates components of the Red Hat Directory Server, MIT Kerberos, Red Hat Certificate System, NTP, and DNS.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Prior to this update, GSSAPI credential delegation was disabled in the curl utility due to a security issue. As a result, applications that rely on delegation did not work properly. This update utilizes a new constructor argument in the xmlrpc-c client API to set the new CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION curl option. This option enables the credential delegation, thus fixing this bug. (BZ#729805)

Users of ipa are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at This content is not included.https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259
