Bug#986358: hardening-runtime: Restrictions on /etc/pam.d/ break X screensavers

Show all headers | View raw

Package: hardening-runtime
Version: 2
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: andrew@savchenko.net

Dear Maintainer,

Restricting permissions on /etc/pam.d to 0700 while the folder is owned
by `root:root` leads to xscreensaver, mate-screensaver and others being
unable to authenticate a user.

Perhaps worth adding a warning or making this optional?


Thank you.
