Bug#662076: RFS: pam-shield/0.9.2-3.3 [NMU] [RC]

[Jonathan Niehof <jtniehof@gmail.com>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: important

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "pam-shield"

 * Package name    : pam-shield
   Version         : 0.9.2-3.3
   Upstream Author : Walter de Jong <walter@heiho.net> and Jonathan
Niehof <jtniehof@gmail.com>
 * URL             : http://www.heiho.net/pam_shield/index.html
 * License         : GPL2
   Section         : admin

  It builds those binary packages:

    libpam-shield - locks out remote attackers trying password guessing

  To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/pam-shield

  Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

    dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pam-shield/pam-shield_0.9.2-3.3.dsc

Changes since the last upload:
* Block IPs when allow_missing_dns is no (Closes: #658830).

This is a minimal-changes upload only to fix a grave security bug, so
the security team has the option of propagating it into stable.
A much more comprehensive upload will follow, synching with upstream
and closing several bugs (including my ITA).

  Regards,
   Jonathan Niehof
