+    <p>
+    PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is an architecture allowing
+    the separation of the development of privilege granting software from
+    the development of secure and appropriate authentication schemes.
+    SELinux is an operating system based on Linux which includes Mandatory
+    Access Control.
+    </p>

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    The SELinux patches for PAM introduce a vulnerability allowing a
+    password to be checked with the unix_chkpwd utility without delay or
+    logging. This vulnerability doesn't affect users who do not run
+    SELinux.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to brute-force
+    passwords and escalate privileges on an SELinux system.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All SELinux PAM users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=sys-libs/pam-0.78-r3"</code>
