CVE-2009-2697
First published: Fri May 11 2007(Updated: )
Description of problem: gdm used to be built with tcp_wrappers on previous RHEL releases, although the BuildRequires was missing there as well. The tcp_wrappers package just happened to appear in the buildroot. I believe it's nice to be able to limit XDMCP connections using hosts.{allow,deny}. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdm-2.16.0-30.el5 Additional info: If you're going to fix this, don't forget that <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_CLOSED bz_closed bz_public " title="CLOSED ERRATA - CVE-2007-5079 gdm with xdmcp ignoring tcp_wrappers on x86_64" href="show_bug.cgi?id=181302">bug 181302</a> applies here as well.
