Pki-core: dogtag-pki: redhat-pki: pki-core: ca renewal request processing omits realm authorization check performed by enrollment path
Summary
A flaw was found in pki-core. The certificate authority (CA) renewal request path does not perform the realm-based authorization check that the enrollment path performs, allowing an authenticated user entitled to one realm to cause a certificate belonging to a different realm to be renewed without that realm's authorization. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat Certificate System 10; Red Hat Certificate System 11; Red Hat Certificate System 9; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; and 4 more. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.
