Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges within the application.

The vulnerability exists due to the way the redfish plugin handles passwords. When creating an OPERATOR user account on the BMC, the redfish plugin saved the auto-generated password to /etc/fwupd/redfish.conf without proper restriction. A local user can read the configuration file and gain operator privileges.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
