Date: Mon, 24 May 1999 20:44:28 +0200 From: Lord Evil To: BUGTRAQ@netspace.org Subject: UID 65536 and shadow-19990307 Recently one of our admins installed the shadow-19990307 package. While playing around I noticed that if a new user is created with UID 65536, he will become root upon login. No root login will be logged, and even if the tty isn't in /etc/securetty he will be allowed in. I dont think this is normal behaviour :)
