spacewalk: Insecure computation of authentication signatures during user authentication

Published Jul 2, 2019

Description

It was found that Spacewalk, all versions through 2.9, did not safely compute client token checksums. An attacker with a valid, but expired, authenticated set of headers could move some digits around, artificially extending the session validity without modifying the checksum.
