+Subject: [PATCH] pam_timestamp: fix potential directory traversal issue
+ (ticket #27)
+
+pam_timestamp uses values of PAM_RUSER and PAM_TTY as components of
+the timestamp pathname it creates, so extra care should be taken to
+avoid potential directory traversal issues.
+
+* modules/pam_timestamp/pam_timestamp.c (check_tty): Treat
+"." and ".." tty values as invalid.
+(get_ruser): Treat "." and ".." ruser values, as well as any ruser
+value containing '/', as invalid.
+
+Fixes CVE-2014-2583.
