Description David Walser 2020-12-20 17:29:18 CET 
Fedora has issued an advisory on December 11:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/DXQ7FDHYLED67W25CECAG23E5F5V6LXK/

The issue was introduced in 1.5.0 and fixed in 1.5.1.

However, Fedora had to patch 1.3.1.  They caused the issue in their 1.3.1 package with the addition of pam-1.3.1-determinine-user-exists.patch, which was added after the last time I synced patches with them, so we are not affected.

Filing this bug to document that fact and make that clear.
