Ubuntu 20.04 LTS : SSSD regression (USN-6156-2)

info Nessus Plugin ID 177390

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-6156-2 advisory.

 USN-6156-1 fixed a vulnerability in SSSD. In certain environments, not all packages ended up being upgraded at the same time, resulting in authentication failures when the PAM module was being used.

 This update fixes the problem. We apologize for the inconvenience.



Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
