FKIE_CVE-2026-14474
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-07-07 10:16 - Updated: 2026-09-03 15:17
Severity
Summary
A flaw was found in SSSD's LDAP sudo provider. When the ldap_sudo_search_base option is not explicitly configured, SSSD searches the entire LDAP directory tree for sudoRole objects. An authenticated attacker with write access to any subtree can inject a sudoRole object granting root-level sudo privileges on all SSSD-enrolled hosts.
