Title: | DSA-2213-1 x11-xserver-utils -- missing input sanitisation | ||
Description: | Sebastian Krahmer discovered that the xrdb utility of x11-xserver-utils, a X server resource database utility, is not properly filtering crafted hostnames. This allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code with root privileges given that either remote logins via xdmcp are allowed or the attacker is able to place a rogue DHCP server into the victims network. The oldstable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 7.3+6. | ||
