[Bug 1165351] systemd libpam-systemd immediate memory exhaustion triggers oom upon ssh

http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1165351 http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1165351#c25 --- Comment #25 from Franck Bui <fbui@suse.com> --- (In reply to Luis Chamberlain from comment #23)

Also, if the culprit is libtirpc function __rpc_dtbsize() shouldn't we be able to proof of concept this easily? And wouldn't this issue be more visible and easier to reproduce elsewhere?

See previous comments, it's due to the fact __rpc_dtbsize() is called with rlimits inherited from PID1. The rlimits of started service are initialized *after* the call to initgroups(3). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
