shadow 1:4.0.13-7ubuntu3.1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

shadow (1:4.0.13-7ubuntu3.1) dapper-security; urgency=low

  * SECURITY UPDATE: Root privilege escalation.
  * debian/patches/360_setuid_failure:
    - src/passwd.c: Check for failing setuid() (which can happen if user hits
      PAM limits). Before, passwd continued to run as root and executed
      chfn/chsh/gpasswd as root instead of as the user.
    - Thanks to Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen for pointing this out.
