Fedora Core 4: 2005-07-13 Moderate: PAM XAUTHORITY Handling Fix

PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is a system security tool that

allows system administrators to set authentication policy without

having to recompile programs that handle authentication.

This update fixes a regression in XAUTHORITY handling and updates auditing

support. It requires audit-libs update due to changes in its API.

- pam_loginuid shouldn't report error when /proc/self/loginuid

is missing (#159974)

* Thu Jun 9 2005 Tomas Mraz

- add the Requires dependency on audit-libs (#159885)

* Fri May 20 2005 Tomas Mraz 0.79-9

- update the pam audit patch to support newest audit library,

audit also pam_setcred calls (Steve Grubb)

- don't use the audit_fd as global static variable

- don't unset the XAUTHORITY when target user is root
