Certificate profiles consist of an FreeIPA object, and a corresponding Dogtag configuration object. When updating profile configuration, changes to the Dogtag configuration are not properly authorised, allowing unprivileged operators to modify (but not create or delete) profiles. This could result in issuance of certificates with fraudulent subject naming information, improper key usage, or other badness. Update certprofile-mod to ensure that the operator has permission to modify FreeIPA certprofile objects before modifying the Dogtag configuration. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/6560
