| | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose of commit: new feature Commit summary: --------------- some applications are not prepared to get a SIGCHLD from a child process they didn't think they launched, so we now suppress this signal for the duration of use of the helper binary. The 'noreap' module argument is provided to override this new default.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose of commit: minor security bugfix Commit summary: --------------- Fixes for the password helper binaries. Before, there was no check that the password entered was actually that of the intended user being authenticated. Instead, the password was checked for the requesting user. While this disstinction sounds like a security hole, its actually not been a problem in practice. The helper binaries have only been used in the case that the application is not setuid-0 and as such even if an improper authentication succeeded, the application could not change its uid from that of the requesting user.
