>Description:
[Sorry to submit this right after the tag went down, but I just
noticed it.]
Since pam_ssh is unable to use the libc environment calls (long
story), it uses a linked list to manage the environment on its own.
The list was not getting freed properly, which could cause a memory
leak in PAM applications that use this module.
This patch also ensures strict modes on the file containing ssh-agent
environment strings created in the user's ~/.ssh directory.
>How-To-Repeat:
Look at the env_destroy() function and see how it can't possibly
work. :-)
>Fix:
Apply this patch against src/crypto/openssh/pam_ssh/pam_ssh.c.
