+Subject: [PATCH] pam_unix: Report unusable hashes found by checksalt to
+ syslog.
+
+libxcrypt can be build-time configured to support (or not support)
+various hashing methods. Future versions will also have support for
+runtime configuration by the system's vendor and/or administrator.
+
+For that reason adminstrator should be notified by pam if users cannot
+log into their account anymore because of such a change in the system's
+configuration of libxcrypt.
+
+Also check for malformed hashes, like descrypt hashes starting with
+"$2...", which might have been generated by unsafe base64 encoding
+functions as used in glibc <= 2.16.
+Such hashes are likely to be rejected by many recent implementations
+of libcrypt.
+
+* modules/pam_unix/passverify.c (verify_pwd_hash): Report unusable
+hashes found by checksalt to syslog.
