Subject: [OE-core][PATCH] libpam: mark CVE-2025-6018 as not applicable
Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2025 15:59:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251021135907.17684-1-anders.heimer@est.tech> (raw)

CVE-2025-6018 is a local privilege escalation in PAM that requires
`user_readenv=1` to be enabled in the PAM configuration. The default
configuration does not enable reading user environment files (user_readenv
is 0 by default). Hence this vulnerability cannot be exploited using the
default configuration.
