Hash: SHA1
Package: passwd
Version: 1:4.0.18.1-3
Severity: grave
Justification: causes data loss
Since some time after sarge, the cppw program does not recognize the -s
switch. When -s is given, it is supposed to copy the file to /etc/shadow,
but instead it copies it to /etc/passwd, effectively disabling ALL logins.
I've looked at the code (in debian/patches/401_cppw_src.dpatch), and
noticed it is checking for the obsolete symbol SHADOWPWD before checking
for the -s switch. Since that symbol doesn't exist (The Changelog says it
has been removed), it goes ahead and copies the file over /etc/passwd
instead of /etc/shadow.
