+    <p>
+    Kees Huijgen discovered an error when checking the credentials which
+    can lead to a login without specifying a password. This only occurs
+    when auto login is configured for at least one user and a password is
+    required to shut down the machine.

+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could gain root privileges and execute arbitrary
+    commands by logging in as root without specifying root's password.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>

+    There is no known workaround at this time.
