Issue

  • A compromised admin account may be used to bypass multi-admin verification (MAV) when a second admin account is already configured for SSH application and primary authentication method public key but without a second authentication method or multi factor authentication (MFA).
  • This is not a defect.
  • This is a minor enhancement to add below commands to MAV:

security login publickey create
 
security login publickey modify
 
security login publickey delete
