[Bug 2010528] New: Review Request: tcb - Implementation of the tcb password shadowing scheme

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2010528 Bug ID: 2010528 Summary: Review Request: tcb - Implementation of the tcb password shadowing scheme Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Component: Package Review Severity: medium Priority: medium Assignee: nobody(a)fedoraproject.org Reporter: besser82(a)fedoraproject.org QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: package-review(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora Description: The tcb package consists of three components: pam_tcb, libnss_tcb, and libtcb. pam_tcb is a PAM module which supersedes pam_unix and pam_pwdb. It also implements the tcb password shadowing scheme (see tcb(5) for details). The tcb scheme allows many core system utilities (passwd(1) being the primary example) to operate with little privilege. libnss_tcb is the accompanying NSS module. libtcb contains code shared by the PAM and NSS modules and is also used by programs from the shadow-utils package.

Additional information: This package is intended as a base for (likely to happen) future system-wide changes to Fedora. As the functionality, this package provides, is will be needed for the system core, the (quite many small) sub-packages have intentionally been crafted for needing as few (pre-)dependencies each as possible in order to be installable very early in the process of system-upgrades and/or kickstarts. For that reason the main-library package ships no components that require anything but glibc to be available, since otherwise hard to resolve dependency cycles with unpredictable behaviour will arise.
