CVE-2019-3811
A vulnerability was found in sssd.
MEDIUM 5.2EPSS 0.70%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.70%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
A vulnerability was found in sssd. If a user was configured with no home directory set, sssd would return '/' (the root directory) instead of '' (the empty string / no home directory). This could impact services that restrict the user's filesystem access to within their home directory through chroot() etc. All versions before 2.1 are vulnerable.
