Package: libpam-modules
Version: 0.99.7.1-7
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole


In the console login prompt entering a non-existent login you get
a "Login incorrect" message WITHOUT being asked for any password.

This is a serious security hole, because pam are revealing information
about the accounts there are in the system.

Version 1.0.1 of the pam packages seem to have the same problem.

Roberto Lumbreras
