Fabian Vogt reported that the PAM module in oath-toolkit, a collection
of components to build one-time password authentication systems, does

using the usersfile feature (allowing to place the OTP state in the home
directory of the to-be-authenticated user). A local user can take
advantage of this flaw for root privilege escalation.
