Descriptions

vipw in the util-linux package before 2.10 causes /etc/shadow to be world-readable in some cases, which would make it easier for local users to perform brute force password guessing.

vipw en el paquete util-linux anteriores a 2.10 permite que /etc/shawow sea legible por todos los usuarios en algunos casos, lo que haría facil a usuarios locales realizar ataques de fuerza bruta para adivinar contraseñas.
