Package: libpam-smbpass
Version: 4.1.20+dfsg-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

On one of my computer, when libpam-smbpass is installed, all local login
attempt fail.

su, sudo, login on console, using gdm or sddm all break. Only ssh succed

I've report in log like :

  *** Error in `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sddm/sddm-helper': double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x0000000000a38a70 ***
  *** Error in `gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-password]': double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x000000000226c960

and error from su like :

  *** Error in `su': double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x000055846363b500 ***

and mostly the same from sudo.

Uninstalling libpam-smbpass fix the problem.

Note that libpam-smbpass was installed but not used nor configured. I could
reinstall it to try debugging stuff.

Thanks
