Package: libpam-modules
Version: 1.0.1-5+lenny1
Severity: normal

Current version of pam_listfile checks whether an user is a member of
listed groups inefficiently. It actually breaks with large groups. In
our case, there are some groups that contain nearly all users (Active
Directory, which serves name services, makes each user a member of
primary group, so some groups have more then 1500 members).

In upstream CVS this feature has been patched recently:
