  • pam (0.79-4ubuntu1) feisty; urgency=low
    
      * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
        - Patch 100 (renumbered from 060): Look at ~/.pam_environment too, with
          the same format as /etc/security/pam_env.conf.
        - Patch 101 (renumbered from 061): Explicitly initialise RLIMIT_NICE
          rather than relying on the kernel limits. Bound RLIMIT_NICE from below
          as well as from above. Fix off-by-one error when converting
          RLIMIT_NICE to the range of values used by the kernel.
        - Add PATH to /etc/environment if it's not present there or in
          /etc/security/pam_env.conf.
        - debian/rules: Fix a bashism.
        - Install unix_chkpwd setgid shadow instead of setuid root. The nis
          package handles overriding this as necessary.
        - Use pam_foreground in the default session.
        - Linux-PAM/libpamc/test/regress/test.libpamc.c: Use standard u_int8_t
          type rather than __u8.
    
    pam (0.79-4) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Medium-urgency upload; at least one RC bugfix, but also a
        significant number of changes, hence not urgency=high.
      * Move libpam-modules and libpam0g to Section: libs and libpam-runtime
        to section: admin, to match the overrides in the archive.
      * Move old changelog entries (well, entry) that don't follow the current
        format to debian/changelog.old, since there's no way to figure out a
        timestamp for an 8-year-old upload, and this is the most effective
        way to clear a glut of lintian warnings.
      * Fix the formatting of the libpam-cracklib package description.
      * Patch 010: remove parts of the patch that aren't necessary for C++
        compatibility.
      * Patch 060: fix a segfault in pam_tally caused by misuse of
        pam_get_data(); already fixed upstream.  Closes: #335273.
      * Patch 061: fix a double free in pam_issue, caused by overuse (and misuse)
        of strdup (similar to patch 059).  Already fixed upstream.
        Closes: #327272.
      * Don't build-depend on libselinux1-dev and libcap-dev on kfreebsd archs.
        Closes: #352329.
      * Patch 005: sync pam_limits with upstream:
        - support "-" (unlimited) for all limit types except process priority.
        - support the additional aliases "-1", "unlimited", and "infinity" for
          clearing the limits; closes: #122400, #149027.
        - restrict the range of process priority, login count, and system login
          count settings to (INT_MIN,INT_MAX) (heh).
        - special-case RLIM_INFINITY when applying multipliers to values from
          the config.
        - document maxsyslogins in the default limits.conf; closes: #149883.
        - use the current process priority as a default instead of resetting to
          0; closes: #241663.
        - add support for (and document) new RLIMIT_NICE and RLIMIT_RTPRIO
          settings in Linux 2.6.12 and above; closes: #313542, #313588.
        - allow imposing limits on uid=0.
      * Patch 027: only set RLIM_INFINITY as the default for the limits where
        we know this is sensible, so that recompiling in an environment with new
        limits doesn't create a security hole -- as happened with RLIMIT_NICE and
        RLIMIT_RTPRIO!  Thanks to Ville Hallik for the initial patch.
        Closes: #388431.
      * Patch 029, 047: Fix up the broken pam_limits capabilities patch so it
        actually works -- which may well be a first...  Closes: #318452.
    
    pam (0.79-3.2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Non-maintainer upload to fix important bug, that makes passwd segfault
        when CTRL-D is pressed at the password prompt.  Applied the patch
        provided by Dann Frazier.  (Closes: #360657)

  • pam (0.79-3.1ubuntu1) edgy; urgency=low

    pam (0.79-3.1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Non-maintainer upload.
      * Linux-PAM/libpamc/include/security/pam_client.h,
        Linux-PAM/libpamc/pamc_converse.c: Apply patch from
        latest upstream version to remove redefinition of internal
        glibc/libstdc++ types.  Closes: #344447.
