Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.57633
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:201 (pam_ldap)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to pam_ldap
announced via advisory MDKSA-2006:201.

Pam_ldap does not return an error condition when an LDAP directory
server responds with a PasswordPolicyResponse control response, which
causes the pam_authenticate function to return a success code even if
authentication has failed, as originally reported for xscreensaver.
This might lead to an attacker being able to login into a suspended
system account.

Updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Affected: 2006.0, 2007.0, Corporate 4.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
