Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
pam usb versions prior to 0.9.1
Description
When a PAM service is configured with
deny remote=false, the PAM RHOST check within the pusb do auth() function is skipped. PAM RHOST is a variable used by remote daemons, such as sshd or XDMCP servers, to identify the address of a remote client. Because this check is gated by the deny remote option, remote XDMCP connections can reach the USB device authentication stage instead of being rejected.Recommendations
Update to version 0.9.1.
