Package: libpam-unix2
Version: 1.25-1
Severity: important
Until now, we had a problem: all applications using PAM for
authentication, like sshd, wdm and su, did crash with a segmentation
every time that a user did type a wrong password. This happened on amd64
machines with Debian "sarge" 3.1 (libc 2.3.2) and the latest pam_unix2
1.30 (and also with version 1.25). Note that it also happens on i386, but
the consequence is just a warning message.
Gdb did show that the crash happened because of the free() at
unix_auth.c:89 (_cleanup_message). It seems to free memory that was
previously allocated with 'alloca'. Is this right? Reading the man-page,
I have the impression that memory allocated with alloca is on the stack
and not on the heap and that therefore shouldn't be freed. I did
comment out that line, and now everything is fine. No more segmentation
faults...
I did send the above bug-report already upstream on the 2006-01-30 (without
an answer yet).
Cheers
David
