Package: tiger
Version: 1:3.2.1-24
/usr/lib/tiger/scripts/check_system reports users that don't have password aging
enabled even if they don't have a password. The checks for password aging are
performed by /usr/lib/tiger/systems/Linux/2/check_passwdspec. The false warning
occurs if there are users that have names which are a substring of the name of
another user. That way "grep $user /etc/passwd" returns more than one line and
confuses the script. The patch below fixes the problem (on my machine).
