VCID-cabd-74q6-kug2
Aliases:
CVE-2017-20002
The Debian shadow package before 1:4.5-1 for Shadow incorrectly lists pts/0 and pts/1 as physical terminals in /etc/securetty. This allows local users to login as password-less users even if they are connected by non-physical means such as SSH (hence bypassing PAM's nullok_secure configuration). This notably affects environments such as virtual machines automatically generated with a default blank root password, allowing all local users to escalate privileges.

Vulnerability Summary Aliases
VCID-2bqp-dcbv-9yer passwd command in shadow in Ubuntu 5.04 through 6.06 LTS, when called with the -f, -g, or -s flag, does not check the return code of a setuid call, which might allow local users to gain root privileges if setuid fails in cases such as PAM failures or resource limits. CVE-2006-3378
VCID-gzq6-6n1d-jyd7 The Debian installer for the (1) shadow 4.0.14 and (2) base-config 2.53.10 packages includes sensitive information in world-readable log files, including preseeded passwords and pppoeconf passwords, which might allow local users to gain privileges. CVE-2006-1844
VCID-jbed-4gsv-xkhu A security issue in shadow allows a local user to perform certain actions with escalated privileges. CVE-2006-1174
VCID-m7wk-m2nu-abgf The installation of Debian GNU/Linux 3.1r1 from the network install CD creates /var/log/debian-installer/cdebconf with world writable permissions, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (disk consumption). CVE-2006-1376
VCID-z4em-vwpw-efd7 Unknown vulnerability in the passwd_check function in Shadow 4.0.4.1, and possibly other versions before 4.0.5, allows local users to conduct unauthorized activities when an error from a pam_chauthtok function call is not properly handled. CVE-2004-1001
