CVE-2026-127101

Sssd: sssd: null pointer dereference in pam responder when protocol version negotiation is skipped

A flaw was found in SSSD's PAM responder. A local attacker can send an authentication request without first negotiating the client protocol version. The responder dereferences a NULL protocol-version pointer and crashes, disrupting SSSD-backed authentication. Repeated crafted requests can sustain the denial of service.

Sssd: sssd: stack buffer overflow during rsa certificate-to-ssh key conversion

A flaw was found in SSSD's conversion of X.509 certificate RSA public keys to SSH keys. Missing size checks before copying RSA components into fixed-size stack buffers can cause a stack buffer overflow. An attacker able to supply a certificate with oversized RSA components that passes the configured certificate checks can cause denial of service and corrupt SSH responder memory.

Sssd: sssd: local denial of service through unchecked oauth2 json code type in pam responder

A flaw was found in SSSD's PAM responder on builds with the JSON PAM extension enabled. A local attacker can submit a crafted authentication request containing a non-string OAuth2 code value. Missing JSON type validation leads to a NULL pointer dereference, terminating the PAM responder and disrupting SSSD-backed authentication.

Sssd: sssd: idp authentication prefix comparison allows cross-user impersonation

A flaw was found in SSSD's IdP authentication provider. The eval_access_token_buf() function compares the OIDC subject identifier using strncmp() with the authenticated user's identifier length, performing a prefix comparison instead of an exact match. An attacker whose IdP identifier is a strict prefix of a target user's identifier can authenticate as the target user.

CVE-2026-90994

Sssd: sssd: denial of service via malformed pam v1 requests

A flaw was found in sssd, specifically within the PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) responder's protocol v1 parser, pam_parse_in_data(). A local client with access to the PAM responder's UNIX socket can exploit this by negotiating protocol v1 and sending an empty or truncated PAM request body. This can trigger an out-of-bounds read, potentially causing the PAM responder to terminate or restart, leading to a local denial of service.

CVE-2026-90995

Sssd: sssd: local denial of service due to null pointer dereference in pam responder

A flaw was found in SSSD (System Security Services Daemon). A local attacker with privileges to connect to the PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) responder socket can send a specially crafted protocol request. If the `pam_app_services` configuration is enabled and the service item is omitted from the request, a NULL pointer dereference can occur. This vulnerability leads to a denial of service, causing the PAM responder to crash and disrupt authentication services.

Sssd: sssd: denial of service in nss responder via crafted zero-length requests

A flaw was found in sssd. A local unprivileged user could send a specially crafted request with a zero-length body to the Network Security Services (NSS) responder. This could lead to a denial-of-service condition, causing the NSS responder to become unstable or terminate. This vulnerability affects the availability of the system responder.

Sssd: use-after-free crash in sssd' 'sssd_pam' process

A flaw was found in sssd. When authenticating with a YubiKey, the SSSD PAM responder can crash due to a use-after-free vulnerability, where a memory pointer is incorrectly handled. A local attacker could exploit this flaw by manipulating smartcard or YubiKey contents, leading to a denial of service that disrupts authentication. This vulnerability also presents a potential for privilege escalation, although it is difficult to exploit.

CVE-2026-68744

Sssd: sssd: nss responder uninitialized heap disclosure in initgroups reply

A flaw was found in SSSD. The sss_nss_protocol_fill_initgr() function in the NSS responder pre-allocates reply space for all group entries but does not shrink the packet when groups are skipped, causing uninitialized heap bytes to be transmitted to the client. A local attacker can exploit this to disclose cached directory data and heap layout information from the sssd_nss process.

Sssd: sssd: denial of service via out-of-bounds read in autofs responder

A flaw was found in SSSD. A local attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted request to the autofs responder UNIX socket. Due to improper buffer offset calculation during request parsing, the service performs an out-of-bounds memory read. This flaw can cause the autofs responder process to crash, resulting in a denial of service (DoS).

Sssd: sssd: access control bypass via premature ldap access rule evaluation

A flaw was found in SSSD. When configured to evaluate password expiration warnings before restrictive access rules in LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) environments, an expired-password warning terminates rule evaluation early and treats the access request as successful. A remote authenticated user with an expired password using an alternative authentication method, such as SSH public key authentication, can exploit this flaw to bypass access control restrictions and gain unauthorized access to protected systems.

Sssd: sssd: fail-open in ldap ppolicy access check allows continued authorization

A flaw was found in SSSD. When configured with the LDAP access provider and `ldap_access_order` including `ppolicy` or `lockout`, a fail-open condition in the LDAP ppolicy access check can occur if a user lookup returns zero results. This can incorrectly return success and cache an allow decision, permitting continued authorization for a deleted or deprovisioned user. A remote attacker with prior valid account context could exploit this to maintain access to information and potentially make limited modifications to resources that should no longer be available.

Sssd: sssd: denial of service via responder connection retry loop during file descriptor exhaustion

A flaw was found in sssd. A local user can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by exhausting the responder service's available file descriptors (system handles used for open connections). By opening and maintaining many concurrent connections to a responder socket while continuing to queue new connection attempts, an attacker can trigger an unthrottled retry loop. This condition leads to high CPU utilization and stalls the service, preventing legitimate identity and authentication requests from being processed.

Sssd: sssd-kcm: local denial of service via excessive memory preallocation

A flaw was found in `sssd-kcm`. A local user or process able to connect to the `sssd-kcm` UNIX socket can exploit this vulnerability. By sending a large request length header and then stalling the connection, an attacker can cause the system to preallocate significant memory. This leads to memory exhaustion within the `sssd-kcm` responder, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) for affected deployments.

Sssd: sssd: nss responder out-of-bounds read via unchecked addrlen in gethostbyaddr

A flaw was found in SSSD. The sss_nss_protocol_parse_addr() function in the NSS responder does not validate the addrlen field against the remaining packet body size. A local attacker can exploit this via a crafted GETHOSTBYADDR request to the NSS responder socket, causing an out-of-bounds read and process crash, resulting in a denial of service.

A flaw was found in SSSD. The extract_authtok_v1() function in the PAM responder does not validate the auth_token_length field against the remaining buffer size before processing. A local attacker can exploit this via a crafted protocol v1 request to the PAM responder socket, causing an out-of-bounds read and process crash, resulting in a denial of service.

Sssd: sssd: gpo cache path traversal via unsanitized gpcfilesyspath allows kerberos authentication bypass

A path traversal flaw was found in SSSD's AD GPO provider. The ad_gpo_extract_smb_components() function does not sanitize .. sequences in the gPCFileSysPath LDAP attribute, allowing an attacker with AD GPO management access to write files outside the GPO cache directory as root. On default RHEL configurations with SELinux enforcing, this can be used to inject Kerberos configuration leading to authentication bypass.

Sssd: sssd: authorization bypass via cross-domain username collision in hbac evaluation

A flaw was found in SSSD. In trust-enabled identity management environments, SSSD evaluates Host-Based Access Control (HBAC) rules by stripping domain qualifiers and comparing only short usernames. An authenticated user in a trusted domain who shares the same username as an authorized local account can bypass access policies and gain unauthorized access to protected services or hosts.
