--- Begin Message ---Package: login Version: 1:4.0.18.1-11 Severity: normal Hi, when logging in with an unknown user name, the login is immediately rejected with 'Login incorrect'. I suppose this is bad for security as it allows to more easily guess valid user names. IIRC, last time i consciously checked this (some time ago) it was not possible to distinguish between - username wrong - password wrong - username and password wrong Regards, ingo Here a screen dump of a successful and a failed attempt: Ctrl-Alt-Delete for system halt Linux 2.6.22.5 (tty2) noo login: ingo Password: Last login: Thu Sep 20 17:13:11 CEST 2007 on tty2 Linux noo 2.6.22.5 #3 Sun Aug 26 16:55:43 CEST 2007 i686 The programs included with the Debian GNU/Linux system are free software; the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.

Thanks to Russell Coker. Closes: #491907 * debian/patches/494_passwd_lock-no_account_lock: Restore the previous behavior of passwd -l (which changed in #389183): only lock the user's password, not the user's account. Also explicitly document the differences. This restores a behavior common with the previous versions of passwd and with other implementations. Closes: #492307 * debian/patches/494_passwd_lock-no_account_lock: Add a reference to usermod(8) in passwd(1). Closes: #412234 * debian/login.pam: Enforce a fail delay to avoid login brute-force. Closes: #443322 * debian/login.pam: Indicate why the pam_securetty module is used as a requisite module and mentions the possible drawbacks. Closes: #482352 * debian/login.defs: Do not mention the libpam-umask package (the module is now provided by libpam-modules). Closes: #492410 * debian/patches/200_Czech_binary_translation: Updated Czech translation. Thanks to Miroslav Kure. Closes: #482823 * debian/securetty.linux: Add the PA-RISC mux ports (ttyB0, ttyB1).
