Summary:

USN-5825-1 caused some minor regressions in PAM.

Software Description:
- pam: Pluggable Authentication Modules

Details:

USN-5825-1 fixed vulnerabilities in PAM. Unfortunately that update was
incomplete and could introduce a regression. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

 It was discovered that PAM did not correctly restrict login from an IP
 address that is not resolvable via DNS. An attacker could possibly use this
 issue to bypass authentication.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 22.10:
  libpam-modules                  1.5.2-2ubuntu1.3

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS:
  libpam-modules                  1.4.0-11ubuntu2.3

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS:
  libpam-modules                  1.3.1-5ubuntu4.6

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS:
  libpam-modules                  1.1.8-3.6ubuntu2.18.04.6

Ubuntu 16.04 ESM:
  libpam-modules                  1.1.8-3.2ubuntu2.3+esm4

Ubuntu 14.04 ESM:
  libpam-modules                  1.1.8-1ubuntu2.2+esm3
