- Tarhon-Onu Victor found a problem in /bin/login's PAM implementation. It stored
- the value of a static pwent buffer across PAM calls, and when used with some PAM
- modules in non-default configurations (ie. using pam_limits), it would overwrite
- the buffer and cause the user to get the credentials of another user. Thanks to
- Olaf Kirch for providing the patch to fix the problem.
