    Package        : pam-u2f
    CVE ID         : CVE-2025-23013

    Matthias Gerstner reported that pam-u2f, a PAM module which allows to
    use U2F (Universal 2nd Factor) devices in the PAM authentication stack,
    does not properly handle PAM_IGNORE return values, allowing to bypass
    the second factor or password-less login without inserting the proper
    device.

    For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.1.0-1.1+deb12u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your pam-u2f packages.

    For the detailed security status of pam-u2f please refer to its security
    tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/pam-u2f

    Further information about Debian Security Advisories, how to apply
    these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
