An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-7493 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-7493/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-7493/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-7493","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-7493/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-7493","record":{"aliases":["ALSA-2025:17084","ALSA-2025:17129","ALSA-2025:20928","ALSA-2025:20994","AZL-68190","CLSA-2025-1763391572","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-7493","GHSA-vm59-52f9-r52r","RHSA-2025:17084","RHSA-2025:17085","RHSA-2025:17086","RHSA-2025:17087","RHSA-2025:17088","RHSA-2025:17129","RHSA-2025:17645","RHSA-2025:17646","RHSA-2025:17647","RHSA-2025:17648","RHSA-2025:17649","RHSA-2025:20928","RHSA-2025:20994","RLSA-2025:17084","RLSA-2025:17085","RLSA-2025:17129","RLSA-2025:20928","RLSA-2025:20994","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-7493"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"FreeIPA identity management","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can escalate privileges from host to domain admin by exploiting missing validation of the root@REALM canonical name in FreeIPA.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1220","name":"Insufficient Granularity of Access Control"}],"description":"A privilege escalation flaw from host to domain administrator was found in FreeIPA.

While the previously released version added validations for the admin@REALM credential, FreeIPA still does not validate the root@REALM canonical name, which can also be used as the realm administrator's name.
