Description
The pam_pwauth_suid authentication module uses a setuid program to verify a password against the encrypted password in the database used by the system. This way, an unprivileged user can verify his own passsword stored in a shadow password database. There might be some risk that the communication between the invoking program and the setuid program is logged, or for abuse for dictionary attacks.
Install
