OpenBMC's IPMI implementation, phosphor-net-ipmid, is vulnerable to a logic flaw where the authorization context of an existing session can be replaced with a target account while still maintaining the original integrity and encryption keys. Several downstream vendors implement phosphor-net-ipmid as their IPMI stack, such as NVIDIA and H3C. This issue effectively allows for privilege escalation without re-authentication.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in OpenBMC's phosphor-net-ipmid IPMI stack allows an attacker who already holds a valid low-privileged IPMI session to redirect that session's authorization context to a different, higher-privileged account while the original integrity and encryption keys stay in place, so no re-authentication ever occurs. Downstream vendors that package phosphor-net-ipmid — NVIDIA and H3C among them — inherit the flaw in their BMC firmware. …
