Package : kwallet-pam
CVE ID : CVE-2018-10380

Fabian Vogt discovered that incorrect permission handling in the PAM
module of the KDE Wallet could allow an unprivileged local user to gain
ownership of arbitrary files.

For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in
version 5.8.4-1+deb9u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your kwallet-pam packages.
