openSUSE Recommended Update: Recommended update for shadow ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: openSUSE-RU-2017:1536-1 Rating: low References: #1003978 #1031643 Affected Products: openSUSE Leap 42.2 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that has two recommended fixes can now be installed. Description: This update for shadow fixes the following issues: - Dynamically added users via pam_group are not listed in groups databases but are still valid. (bsc#1031643) - useradd(8) and groupadd(8) performance issue when using SSSD. Previously the entire possible UID/GID was iterated to find an available UID/GID. This could take long time over a network device. Instead, find available UID/GID locally, and then check only those values over network. (bsc#1003978) This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12-SP2:Update update project. Patch Instructions: To install this openSUSE Recommended Update use YaST online_update.
