Title:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2007:0777
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2007:0777. Gdm (the GNOME Display Manager) is a highly configurable reimplementation of xdm, the X Display Manager. Gdm allows you to log into your system with the X Window System running and supports running several different X sessions on your local machine at the same time. A flaw was found in the way Gdm listens on its unix domain socket. A local user could crash a running X session by writing malicious data to Gdm's unix domain socket. (CVE-2007-3381) All users of gdm should upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch that resolves this issue. Red Hat would like to thank JLANTHEA for reporting this issue. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2007-0777.html http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/#moderate Risk factor : Low CVSS Score: 1.5
