[Bug 1698758] Re: Encrypted password causes segmentation fault

[Andreas Hasenack]

It's segfaulting because of this odd usage of crypt(3):
                        sent_pw = (char *) crypt(sent_pw, real_pw);

That returns NULL, because in the SHA case the real_pw contains the {
character which is invalid for the second parameter which is meant to be
the salt.

Later on strcmp is used and that's what causes the segfault.

I can't reach the upstream website:
http://www.giuseppetanzilli.it/mod_auth_pgsql2/

I wonder if it's abandoned, or just a temporary issue.
