Summary

The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory GLSA 200805-07.

Insight

Insight

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in components shipped with LTSP which allow remote attackers to compromise terminal clients.

Solution

Solution

LTSP 4.2 is not maintained upstream in favor of version 5. Since version 5 is not yet available in Gentoo, the package has been masked. We recommend that users unmerge LTSP: # emerge --unmerge net-misc/ltsp If you have a requirement for Linux Terminal Servers, please either set up a terminal server by hand or use one of the distributions that already migrated to LTSP 5. If you want to contribute to the integration of LTSP 5 in Gentoo, or want to follow its development, find details in bug 177580. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=GLSA%20200805-07 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215699 http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200705-02.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200705-06.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200705-22.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200705-24.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200710-06.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200710-16.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200710-30.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200711-08.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200801-09.xml https://bugs.gentoo.org/177580
