Could somebody explain the security implication for me?
being able to write arbitrary strings into valid records without
overwriting any other data in utmp/wtmp can hardly be classified
as a security vulnerability.
(Apart from that, I'm only slightly annoyed as I had to learn about
this via MITRE / GNOME Bugzilla instead of a mail from the maintainer
to the security team?)
Regards,
Joey
