Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.66922
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2010:040 (gnome-screensaver)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to gnome-screensaver
announced via advisory MDVSA-2010:040.

Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in
gnome-screensaver:

gnome-screensaver 2.28.0 does not resume adherence to its activation
settings after an inhibiting application becomes unavailable on the
session bus, which allows physically proximate attackers to access
an unattended workstation on which screen locking had been intended
(CVE-2009-4641).

gnome-screensaver before 2.28.2 allows physically proximate attackers
to bypass screen locking and access an unattended workstation by moving
the mouse position to an external monitor and then disconnecting that
monitor (CVE-2010-0414).

This update provides gnome-screensaver 2.28.3, which is not vulnerable
to these issues.

Affected: 2010.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
