+    
+    Prevent erroneous "Login blocked after [negative number] attempts" errors
+
+commit 91a76db66bb496ba4650ada38df31636297738cf
+Author: DMHalford <161769419+DMHalford@users.noreply.github.com>

+
+    Prevent erroneous "Login blocked after [negative number] attempts" errors
+    
+    For root, faillock appears to always* return an empty string (i.e. no table headers are present), yielding a zero-initialized pam_faillock_output_count and thus resulting in the calculation of a negative failed_login_counter value.
+    
+    This can cause erroneous errors of the form "ERROR: Login blocked after [negative number] attempts" during sudo-ing and screen unlocking.
+    
+    This commit modifies the initialization of failed_login_counter such that it cannot be negative and prevents the display of these incorrect warnings.
+    
+    * Only rudimentary local tests were conducted
