Bug ID: 15316
Summary: xscreensaver should check if linux-pam is enabled
Product: buildroot
Version: 2022.11.1
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: P5
Component: Other
Assignee: unassigned@buildroot.uclibc.org
Reporter: jbittner.br.bugs@gmail.com
CC: buildroot@uclibc.org
Target Milestone: ---
At present, xscreensaver needs to be setuid root to read /etc/shadow to handle
login verification for screen locking. By having xscreensaver check if
linux-pam is enabled and adding --with-pam to ./configure, screen locking can
be enabled without setuid.
Note: the relevant utility from linux-pam, unix_chkpwd *DOES* need to be setuid
root
