linux-pam linux-pam: no CVSS score yet. EPSS 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
The pam_env module in Linux-PAM (aka pam) 1.1.2 and earlier reads the .pam_environment file in a user's home directory, which might allow local users to run programs with an unintended environment by executing a program that relies on the pam_env PAM check.
