Summary:                    [patch] MeetMe privilege escalation in password
query
Description: 
Due to invalid checking in the conference pin query of the MeetMe
application, a user can enter a conference as administrator when the "a"
flag is set in the MeetMe() call from the dial-plan and the user only knows
the user pin (which of course might be empty).

This stems from the fact that confflags is set to contain the ADMIN flag
by the "a" option, but this is not handled separately in the testing code
for checking the pin (i.e., the ADMIN flag is not reset or the
authentication rejected when the user doesn't enter the admin, but the user
pin).

The attached patch fixes the issue for conferences which have an empty
user-pin (which is the only reasonable assumption I could find for actually
giving the "a" flag on the MeetMe() commandline); reworking the patch to
fix the issue in the general case (i.e., if "a" is specified, only admins
may enter) is simple.

Changed my mind, just going to change this scenario:
conf => 2345,,6666 : didn't prompt for pin without 'a' option, now does
