Scientific Linux Security Update : ipa on SL6.x i386/x86_64 (20130221)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 65012

Synopsis

The remote Scientific Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

It was found that the current default configuration of IPA servers did not publish correct CRLs (Certificate Revocation Lists). The default configuration specifies that every replica is to generate its own CRL;
however, this can result in inconsistencies in the CRL contents provided to clients from different Identity Management replicas. More specifically, if a certificate is revoked on one Identity Management replica, it will not show up on another Identity Management replica.
(CVE-2012-4546)

Solution

Update the affected packages.
