           Summary: Weekly security check does not check for guessable
                    passwords
           Product: SUSE LINUX 10.0
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Security
        AssignedTo: security-team@suse.de
        ReportedBy: Christian.Andretzky@MB.TU-Chemnitz.DE
         QAContact: qa@suse.de

in /usr/lib/seccheck/security-weekly.sh in line 53 the existence of
/usr/sbin/john and /usr/bin/unshadow is checked before the pasword checking
routine is started.

Unfortunately the location of unshadow has changed to /usr/sbin/unshadow.

So the password checking is skippend.
