21 <title>Linux Terminal Server Project: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
22 <synopsis>
23 Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in components shipped with
24 LTSP which allow remote attackers to compromise terminal clients.

38 The Linux Terminal Server Project adds thin-client support to Linux
39 servers.

44 LTSP version 4.2, ships prebuilt copies of programs such as the Linux
45 Kernel, the X.org X11 server (GLSA 200705-06, GLSA 200710-16, GLSA
46 200801-09), libpng (GLSA 200705-24, GLSA 200711-08), Freetype (GLSA
47 200705-02, GLSA 200705-22) and OpenSSL (GLSA 200710-06, GLSA 200710-30)
48 which were subject to multiple security vulnerabilities since 2006.
49 Please note that the given list of vulnerabilities might not be
50 exhaustive.

53 <impact type="normal">
54 <p>
55 A remote attacker could possibly exploit vulnerabilities in the
56 aforementioned programs and execute arbitrary code, disclose sensitive
57 data or cause a Denial of Service within LTSP 4.2 clients.
58 </p>
59 </impact>
60 <workaround>
61 <p>
62 There is no known workaround at this time.
63 </p>
64 </workaround>
65 <resolution>
66 <p>
67 LTSP 4.2 is not maintained upstream in favor of version 5. Since
68 version 5 is not yet available in Gentoo, the package has been masked.
69 We recommend that users unmerge LTSP:
70 </p>
71 <code>
72 # emerge --unmerge net-misc/ltsp</code>
73 <p>
74 If you have a requirement for Linux Terminal Servers, please either set
75 up a terminal server by hand or use one of the distributions that
76 already migrated to LTSP 5. If you want to contribute to the
77 integration of LTSP 5 in Gentoo, or want to follow its development,
78 find details in bug 177580.
