Insight
A vulnerability has been found and corrected in apache-mod_auth_shadow:
A race condition was found in the way mod_auth_shadow used an external helper binary to validate user credentials (username / password pairs). A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass intended access restrictions, resulting in ability to view and potentially alter resources, which should be otherwise protected by authentication (CVE-2010-1151).
Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0 customers.
