a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-5825-1 advisory.
- The Linux-PAM package before 1.5.2-6.1 for openSUSE Tumbleweed allows authentication bypass for SSH
logins. The pam_access.so module doesn't correctly restrict login if a user tries to connect from an IP
address that is not resolvable via DNS. In such conditions, a user with denied access to a machine can
still get access. NOTE: the relevance of this issue is largely limited to openSUSE Tumbleweed and openSUSE
Factory; it does not affect Linux-PAM upstream. (CVE-2022-28321)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
