Package: libpam-encfs
Version: 0.1.3-1
Severity: critical

When using sudo as a user whose home directory is encrypted by encfs using 
libpam-encfs for authentification, the following behavior shows up:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc$ sudo pwd
Password:
/home/tittel
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc$ sudo pwd
/etc
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc

As you can see, if sudo is called for the first time and asks for the 
password, the current path is not inherited by the super user environment. 
This problem does not occur with a user whose home directory is not encrypted 
by encfs. This bug is known to upstream and has been fixed in version 0.1.4 
of libpam-encfs (see 
http://hollowtube.mine.nu/wiki/index.php?n=Projects.PamEncfs). I built my own 
deb-package for version 0.1.4.1 and can confirm that the bug is resolved in 
this version.

I consider this bug highly dangerous and recommended an urgent fix. Just think 
about somebody executing "sudo rm -R *" in a directory whose contents he 
wants to delete and deleting his whole home directory instead.
