Security Issue

The following security issue applies to the Solaris 9 9/05 release.

Nonpassword Logins Fail With pam_ldap Enabled

After the account management PAM module for LDAP (pam_ldap) is enabled, users must have passwords to log in to the system. Consequently, nonpassword-based logins fail, including those logins that use the following tools:.

• Remote shell (rsh)

• Remote login (rlogin)

• Secure shell (ssh)

Workaround: None.
