Title:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2008:0576
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2008:0576. rdesktop is an open source client for Microsoft Windows NT Terminal Server and Microsoft Windows 2000 and 2003 Terminal Services, capable of natively using the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to present the user's NT desktop. No additional server extensions are required. An integer underflow vulnerability was discovered in the rdesktop. If an attacker could convince a victim to connect to a malicious RDP server, the attacker could cause the victim's rdesktop to crash or, possibly, execute an arbitrary code. (CVE-2008-1801) Users of rdesktop should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to resolve this issue. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network.
