Title:	Ubuntu USN-962-1 (vte)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to vte announced via advisory USN-962-1. Details follow: Janne Snabb discovered that applications using VTE, such as gnome-terminal, did not correctly filter window and icon title request escape codes. If a user were tricked into viewing specially crafted output in their terminal, a remote attacker could execute arbitrary commands with user privileges. Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 9.04: libvte9 1:0.20.0-0ubuntu2.1 Ubuntu 9.10: libvte9 1:0.22.2-0ubuntu2.1 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: libvte9 1:0.23.5-0ubuntu1.1 After a standard system update you need to restart your session to make all the necessary changes. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-962-1 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 6.8
