Vulnerability Title
pam_usb: XPath injection via PAM-supplied identifiers in pam_usb configuration queries
Source: NVD (National Vulnerability Database)
Vulnerability Description
pam_usb provides hardware authentication for Linux using ordinary removable media. Prior to 0.9.0, pam_usb builds XPath expressions from user-supplied identifiers (PAM username, service name) and device-supplied identifiers (USB device serial, model, vendor) to query /etc/pamusb.conf. These identifiers were not validated for XPath metacharacters, allowing injection of arbitrary XPath predicates. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.9.0.
