Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:101

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : rdesktop

Date : May 16, 2008

Affected: 2007.1, 2008.0, 2008.1, Corporate 4.0

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in rdesktop, a Remote Desktop

Protocol client.

 

An integer underflow vulnerability allowed attackers to cause a

denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code with

the privileges of the logged-in user (CVE-2008-1801).

 

A buffer overflow vulnerability allowed attackers to execute arbitrary

code with the privileges of the logged-in user (CVE-2008-1802).

 

An integer signedness vulnerability allowed attackers to

execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the logged-in user

(CVE-2008-1803).

 

In order for these vulnerabilities to be exploited, an attacker must

persuade a targeted user to connect to a malicious RDP server.

 

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
