CVE-2026-73197: Freeipa

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

A flaw was found in FreeIPA. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending oversized form POST requests to the `/ipa/migration/migration.py` endpoint. This can force the migration handler to read attacker-controlled request bodies fully into memory, leading to increased memory usage, slower request handling, and potential service disruption or denial of service.

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux: version 6.0 only; version 7.0 only; version 8.0 only; version 9.0 only; version 10.0 only
