What this means
A vulnerability in FreeIPA allows a compromised principal to obtain a hash of all domain users' passwords and perform offline brute force attacks. The weakness is due to the use of password hashes with insufficient computational effort. The impact is uncertain.

Compare your installed product and version with the affected versions above. A matching product name alone does not confirm exposure.
To mitigate this vulnerability, ticket requests to user principals are now disallowed in FreeIPA realms by default. This will keep attackers from obtaining data encrypted with the user key directly.

Public exploit evidence
No public exploit reference is identified in the imported evidence. This is not a claim that no exploit exists.
Original source description
Read the full publisher description
A vulnerability was found in FreeIPA in a way when a Kerberos TGS-REQ is encrypted using the client’s session key. This key is different for each new session, which protects it from brute force attacks. However, the ticket it contains is encrypted using the target principal key directly. For user principals, this key is a hash of a public per-principal randomly-generated salt and the user’s password.
If a principal is compromised it means the attacker would be able to retrieve tickets encrypted to any principal, all of them being encrypted by their own key directly. By taking these tickets and salts offline, the attacker could run brute force attacks to find character strings able to decrypt tickets when combined to a principal salt (i.e. find the principal’s password).
