Binary package hint: yelp

Hello Team,

This is a serious security error !

Password acceptance while Login


If we type wrong password , UBUNTU allows to login. Eg. if my password id " 
tango " and i type " tangoabc " it allows to login. i feel only mandatory field 
is, the letter or number present in first part of the password. System is not 
checking the entire password entered by a user.

Thanks
