Package: libpam-modules Version: 0.79-3.1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hello,
The pam_unix 'obscure' option cannot be enabled. In Linux-PAM/modules/pam_unix/support.h, there are two flags which concern the 'obscure' option: UNIX_NOOBSCURE_CHECKS and UNIX_OBSCURE_CHECKS. The first one is enabled by default, and there is no way to disable it. Linux-PAM/modules/pam_unix/obscure.c checks if UNIX_NOOBSCURE_CHECKS is set, but never checks wether the 'obscure' option was specified. The attached patch removes the UNIX_NOOBSCURE_CHECKS flag from UNIX_DEFAULTS, and tests if the 'obscure' option was not specified (instead of testing wether the UNIX_NOOBSCURE_CHECKS flag is used, which is always true). After applying this patch, the UNIX_NOOBSCURE_CHECKS is no more used and could be removed. I can send another patch which does this (but it will quite bigger).
