- Updated util-linux packages that fix an information leak in the login
- program are now available.
-
- The util-linux package contains a large variety of low-level system
- utilities that are necessary for a Linux system to function.
-
- In some situations, the login program could use a pointer that had been
- freed and reallocated. This could cause unintentional data leakage.
-
- Note: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 is not vulnerable to this issue.
-
- It is recommended that all users upgrade to these updated packages, which
- are not vulnerable to this issue.
-
- Red Hat would like to thank Matthew Lee of Fleming College for finding and
- reporting this issue.
