Title:
Race condition with two concurrent adduser processes
Status in adduser package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.2
Release: 8.04
adduser:
Installed: 3.105ubuntu1
Candidate: 3.105ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 3.105ubuntu1 0
500 file: hardy/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Two adduser processes were run at the same time by different
administrators. This triggers a race condition where they can both
select the same UID and therefore the second process fails. While an
obscure race condition, it still does happen.
