The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05, has sssd packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  • A vulnerability was found in sssd. If a user was configured with no home directory set, sssd would return ‘/’ (the root directory) instead of ‘’ (the empty string / no home directory). This could impact services that restrict the user’s filesystem access to within their home directory through chroot() etc. All versions before 2.1 are vulnerable. (CVE-2019-3811)

  • A flaw was found in sssd Group Policy Objects implementation. When the GPO is not readable by SSSD due to a too strict permission settings on the server side, SSSD will allow all authenticated users to login instead of denying access. (CVE-2018-16838)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
