Subject: [USN-1099-1] GDM vulnerability
===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1099-1 March 30, 2011
gdm vulnerability
CVE-2011-0727
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 9.10
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Ubuntu 10.10
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 9.10:
gdm 2.28.1-0ubuntu2.3
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
gdm 2.30.2.is.2.30.0-0ubuntu5.1
Ubuntu 10.10:
gdm 2.30.5-0ubuntu4.1
After a standard system update you need to log out all desktop sessions
and restart GDM to make all the necessary changes.
Details follow:
Sebastian Krahmer discovered that GDM (GNOME Display Manager) did not
properly drop privileges when handling the cache directories used
to store users' dmrc and face icon files. This could allow a local
attacker to change the ownership of arbitrary files, thereby gaining
root privileges.
