Gnome gdmThe Red Hat build script for the GNOME Display Manager (GDM) before 2.16.0-56 on Red Hat Enterprise …

Risk 48
Severity
6.8
AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Description of problem: gdm used to be built with tcpwrappers on previous RHEL releases, although the BuildRequires was missing there as well. The tcpwrappers 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 bug 181302 applies here as well.
