Strange.... I did that and it still doesn't work. Here's my change in webmail/auth.c::login:
if (badstr(uid)) /* || badstr(pass))*/ return (NULL);
I just commented out checking the password only.
That's the exact change I made (at line 259) and it solved the problem, so it should work for you. Check that you've recompiled/reinstalled properly.
I have checked thoroughly. After digging around some more (and I do mean DIGGING, for DAYS), and debugging, I've found there's some weird bug only with the '*' character in passwords. Did you actually try a password with that? For some reason, it has the effect (in cgi()) of truncating the username two characters for each '*' in the password.
But during password *changing* (the second badstr call in auth.c), there's a whole different code path I didn't check, and I can only repeat the warning Sam gave me that some modules can potentially make those characters available to the shell.
I should point out that distributing the same function (e.g. filtering passwords) into multiple places in a program is bad practice, regardless of the security issues. I found no less than four different password filter code segments - instead of referencing one function.
Also, at least in PAM, password changing is checked pretty well within the module - where it should be.
