Descriptions

login in util-linux-2.12a skips pam_acct_mgmt and chauth_tok when authentication is skipped, such as when a Kerberos krlogin session has been established, which might allow users to bypass intended access policies that would be enforced by pam_acct_mgmt and chauth_tok.

la entrada en util-linux-2.12a se salta pam_acct_mgmt y chauth_tok cuando la validación es saltada, por ejemplo cuando se ha establecido una sesión del krlogin del Kerberos, lo cual podría permitir a usuarios evitar las políticas previstas de acceso que estarían forzadas por el pam_acct_mgmt y el chauth_tok.
