Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.66904 |
Category: | Fedora Local Security Checks |
Title: | Fedora Core 12 FEDORA-2010-1556 (gnome-screensaver) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing an update to gnome-screensaver announced via advisory FEDORA-2010-1556. Update Information: gnome-screensaver currently doesn't deal with monitors getting removed properly. If the unlock dialog is on the removed monitor then the unlock dialog and its associated keyboard grab are not moved to an existing monitor when the monitor removal is processed. This means that users can gain access to the locked system by placing the mouse pointer on an external monitor and then disconnect the external monitor. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609337 References: [ 1 ] Bug #562217 - CVE-2010-0414 gnome-screensaver: loses its unlock dialog and keyboard grab sometimes when unplugging monitor https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=562217 Solution: Apply the appropriate updates. This update can be installed with the yum update program. Use su -c 'yum update gnome-screensaver' at the command line. For more information, refer to Managing Software with yum, available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=FEDORA-2010-1556 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.2 |
