This refers to definitions set for for pam modules.
Examine: /etc/pam.d/login generally, and in this case: /etc/pam.d/crond
specifically.
Better check to make sure that /lib/security/pam_loginuid.so is ok.
It is part of the pam package, so checking the status of your pam
package might be in order.
It seems to me that you may have some trouble brewing ...
Good luck!
