Package: qmail-uids-gids
Version: 1.06-5
Severity: important
The shell used for the qmail-uids-gids users is bad, even dangerous. The
qmail documentation explicitly stated those users should have a shell of
/bin/false. In the modern era /usr/sbin/nologin might be substituted.
Problem is, the way the qmail-uids-gids was written, the qmail users will
have a shell of /bin/bash, and the error message will suggest a shell of
/bin/sh.
This is VERY bad. The attached patch fixes this for new installations,
but won't fix the issue for existing installations. The original script
doesn't really do much for installations that were older either.
This URGENTLY needs to be fixed!
