Security Fix(es) :

  - It was found that IdM's ca-del, ca-disable, and     ca-enable commands did not properly check the user's     permissions while modifying CAs in Dogtag. An     authenticated, unauthorized attacker could use this flaw     to delete, disable, or enable CAs causing various denial     of service problems with certificate issuance, OCSP     signing, and deletion of secret keys. (CVE-2017-2590)

Bug Fix(es) :

  - Previously, during an Identity Management (IdM) replica     installation that runs on domain level '1' or higher,     Directory Server was not configured to use TLS     encryption. As a consequence, installing a certificate     authority (CA) on that replica failed. Directory Server     is now configured to use TLS encryption during the     replica installation and as a result, the CA     installation works as expected.

  - Previously, the Identity Management (IdM) public key     infrastructure (PKI) component was configured to listen     on the '::1' IPv6 localhost address. In environments     have the the IPv6 protocol disabled, the replica     installer was unable to retrieve the Directory Server     certificate, and the installation failed. The default     listening address of the PKI connector has been updated     from the IP address to 'localhost'. As a result, the PKI     connector now listens on the correct addresses in IPv4     and IPv6 environments.

  - Previously, when installing a certificate authority (CA)     on a replica, Identity Management (IdM) was unable to     provide third-party CA certificates to the Certificate     System CA installer. As a consequence, the installer was     unable to connect to the remote master if the remote     master used a third-party server certificate, and the     installation failed. This updates applies a patch and as     a result, installing a CA replica works as expected in     the described situation.

  - When installing a replica, the web server service entry     is created on the Identity Management (IdM) master and     replicated to all IdM servers. Previously, when     installing a replica without a certificate authority     (CA), in certain situations the service entry was not     replicated to the new replica on time, and the     installation failed. The replica installer has been     updated and now waits until the web server service entry     is replicated. As a result, the replica installation no     longer fails in the described situation.
