tag_summary = "The remote /bin/login seems to crash when it receives too many
environment variables.

An attacker may use this flaw to gain a root shell on this system.";

tag_solution = "Contact your vendor for a patch (or read the CERT advisory)";

# Sun's patch makes /bin/login exits when it receives too many arguments,
# hence making the detection of the flaw difficult. Our logic is the
# following :
#
# Username: "openvas" -> should not crash
# Username: "openvas A=B..... x 61"  -> should not crash
# Username: "openvas A=B..... x 100" -> should crash
