Changelog

shadow (1:4.0.16-2ubuntu2) edgy; urgency=low

  * Consolidate some duplicated code in passwd.postinst.
  * Tidy up after Malone bug #48350, which left an empty root password if
    you backed up from the installer's final message, by locking the root
    password if this condition is detected. Unfortunately I don't know of a
    reliable way to tell whether this situation arose due to the installer
    bug or deliberately, so the postinst is verbose and we make sure only to
    make this change once.
  * 495_salt_stack_smash: Make sure the salt returned from crypt_make_salt
    is properly truncated if MD5_CRYPT_ENAB is disabled, and make chpasswd
    and chgpasswd more careful to avoid a (small) buffer overflow while
    handling that salt in their MD5 modes. Fixes chpasswd/chgpasswd crashes
    when SSP is enabled.
