Package: adduser
Version: 3.154
Severity: minor

useradd from shadow 4.19.0 won't accept the user name "bob;>/hacked" any 
more. We use this in cronjack.t to check whether our fix for 940577
(which IIRC was also a CVE) is still effective.

For the time being, I have disabled this test in adduser.

We shold make up our minds whether we would want to poke the invalid 
user name into /etc/passwd or whether we shrug it away and delete the test 
for good.

Greetings
Marc
