Provide a little clarification please.
Can you or can you not access files after giving a bogus password?
Other than a log issue, are you claiming and real exposure or
privledge elevation ?

I guess what I'm trying to say is that it *appears* to yield control, but
we know it messes with logging.  I was able to log in as users that didn't
exist -- so this could very well be a logging problem only.  To be honest,
this software is so messed up that you'd have to be nuts to use it in
production. :-)
