This update for shadow fixes several issues. This security issue was fixed :

  • CVE-2017-12424: The newusers tool could have been forced to manipulate internal data structures in ways unintended by the authors. Malformed input may have lead to crashes (with a buffer overflow or other memory corruption) or other unspecified behaviors (bsc#1052261).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
