<description> |
| 41 |
<p>In the GNU C Library (glibc) from version 2.17 onwards, the crypt() |
| 42 |
function call can return NULL when the salt violates specifications or |
| 43 |
the system is in FIPS-140 mode and a DES or MD5 hashed password is |
| 44 |
passed. When Cyrus-SASL’s authentication mechanisms call crypt(), a |
| 45 |
NULL may be returned. |
