This is not a security vulnerability as the file you are using is an example and not intended for production use. It says right in the profile /etc/auth-client-config/profile.d/acc-default: # # this example is for using kerberos to authenticate. Has been used with # nss-updatedb, libpam-krb5 and libpam-ccreds. Sould also work with # libpam-heimdal. This is only an example, and you may have to create # your own profiles to authenticate with your system. # [kerberos_example] ...
I will verify that the example works as intended. ** This bug is no longer flagged as a security vulnerability ** Changed in: auth-client-config (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- Password is ignored on local login, even for root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/526999 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
