Himmelblau-Idm: >> Himmelblau Security Vulnerabilities
Himmelblau is an interoperability suite for Microsoft Azure Entra ID and Intune. Prior to 3.1.0 and 2.3.8, the himmelblaud-tasks daemon, running as root, writes Kerberos cache files under /tmp/krb5cc_<uid> without symlink protections. Since commit 87a51ee, PrivateTmp is explicitly removed from the tasks daemon's systemd hardening, exposing it to the host /tmp. A local user can exploit this via symlink attacks to chown or overwrite arbitrary files, achieving local privilege escalation. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.0 and 2.3.8.

Himmelblau is an interoperability suite for Microsoft Azure Entra ID and Intune. From 3.0.0 to before 3.1.0, if Himmelblau is deployed without a configured tenant domain in himmelblau.conf, authentication is not tenant-scoped. In this mode, Himmelblau can accept authentication attempts for arbitrary Entra ID domains by dynamically registering providers at runtime. This behavior is intended for initial/local bootstrap scenarios, but it can create risk in remote authentication environments. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.0.

Himmelblau is an interoperability suite for Microsoft Azure Entra ID and Intune. In versions 0.8.0 through 0.9.21 and 1.0.0-beta through 1.1.0, Himmelblau stores the cloud TGT received during logon in the Kerberos credential cache. The created credential cache collection and received credentials are stored as world readable. This is fixed in versions 0.9.22 and 1.2.0. To work around this issue, remove all read access to Himmelblau caches for all users except for owners.
