Description
sssd vulnerabilities Jakub Hrozek discovered that SSSD incorrectly handled file permissions. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to read the sudo rules available for any user. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2018-10852) It was discovered that SSSD incorrectly handled Group Policy Objects.
