- Summary
- CVE-2023-4641 affecting package shadow-utils for versions less than 4.9-14
- Details
-
A flaw was found in shadow-utils. When asking for a new password, shadow-utils asks the password twice. If the password fails on the second attempt, shadow-utils fails in cleaning the buffer used to store the first entry. This may allow an attacker with enough access to retrieve the password from the memory.
