Vendor Workaround
KCM ticket renewal, the affected feature, is disabled by default (tgt_renewal defaults to false). On systems where it has been enabled, it can be disabled to avoid the vulnerable code path: 1. Edit /etc/sssd/sssd.conf and set `tgt_renewal = false` in the `[kcm]` section. 2. Restart the SSSD KCM responder to apply the change: systemctl restart sssd-kcm.service Note: disabling TGT renewal means renewable Kerberos tickets stored in the KCM credential cache are no longer renewed automatically and must be re-acquired (for example, with kinit) before they expire. Restarting sssd-kcm.service briefly interrupts in-flight KCM requests.

| Description | A flaw was found in SSSD. A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the Kerberos Credential Manager (KCM) responder during Kerberos ticket-granting ticket (TGT) renewal, where a deferred callback accesses memory that has already been released. An authenticated local user with a renewable Kerberos ticket can trigger this issue on systems configured with KCM renewal, causing the KCM responder service to crash and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). | |
