Descriptions

Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 installs the libpam-radius-auth package with the pam_radius_auth.conf set to be world-readable, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information.

Two problems have been discovered in the libpam-radius-auth package, the PAM RADIUS authentication module. The configuration file gets installed world-readable and the same flaw that exists in mod_auth_radius for Apache is inherent in libpam-radius-auth as well.
