Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: : GDM allows local user to read any file.
Notes
Topic
Updated GDM packages are available which correct a bug allowing local users
to read any text files on the system, and a denial of service issue if
XDMCP is enabled.
Details
GDM is the GNOME Display Manager for X.
Versions of GDM prior to 2.4.1.6 contain a bug where GDM will run as root
when examining the ~/.xsession-errors file when using the "examine session
errors" feature, allowing local users the ability to read any text file
on the system by creating a symlink. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0547 to
this issue.
Red Hat Linux 8.0 and 9 are vulnerable to this issue. Versions of GDM in
earlier releases did not have the "examine session errors" feature and
therefore are not vulnerable to this issue.
Also addressed by these erratum packages are two problems in the X Display
Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP) which allow a denial of service attack
(DoS) by crashing the gdm daemon. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CAN-2003-0548 and
CAN-2003-0549 to these issues.
This attack is only possible if XDMCP is enabled. XDMCP is not enabled by
default in Red Hat Linux distributions, and as documented XDMCP should only
ever be run on trusted networks.
Users of GDM are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages which disable
the "examine session errors" feature and contain backported security fixes
for the XDMCP issues.

Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: : GDM allows local user to read any file.
Notes
Topic
Updated GDM packages are available which correct a bug allowing local users
to read any text files on the system, and a denial of service issue if
XDMCP is enabled.
Details
GDM is the GNOME Display Manager for X.
Versions of GDM prior to 2.4.1.6 contain a bug where GDM will run as root
when examining the ~/.xsession-errors file when using the "examine session
errors" feature, allowing local users the ability to read any text file
on the system by creating a symlink. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0547 to
this issue.
Red Hat Linux 8.0 and 9 are vulnerable to this issue. Versions of GDM in
earlier releases did not have the "examine session errors" feature and
therefore are not vulnerable to this issue.
Also addressed by these erratum packages are two problems in the X Display
Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP) which allow a denial of service attack
(DoS) by crashing the gdm daemon. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CAN-2003-0548 and
CAN-2003-0549 to these issues.
This attack is only possible if XDMCP is enabled. XDMCP is not enabled by
default in Red Hat Linux distributions, and as documented XDMCP should only
ever be run on trusted networks.
Users of GDM are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages which disable
the "examine session errors" feature and contain backported security fixes
for the XDMCP issues.

Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: gdm security update
Notes
Topic
Updated GDM packages are available which correct a local crash if XDMCP is
enabled.
Details
GDM is the GNOME Display Manager for X.
Two bugs have been found in the X Display Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP)
which could allow a denial of service attack (DoS) by crashing the gdm
daemon. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
has assigned the names CAN-2003-0548 and CAN-2003-0549 to these issues.
This attack is only possible if XDMCP is enabled. XDMCP is not enabled by
default in Red Hat Enterprise Linux distributions. In addition is
documented best practise that XDMCP should only ever be run on trusted
networks.
Users of XDMCP in GDM should upgrade to these erratum packages which
contain backported security fixes are are not vulnerable to these issues.
Note that Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 is not vulnerable to CAN-2003-0547,
a vulnerability that allows a local user to read any text file, as it did
not have the "examine session errors" feature.

Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: gdm security update
Notes
Topic
Updated GDM packages are available which correct a local crash if XDMCP is
enabled.
Details
GDM is the GNOME Display Manager for X.
Two bugs have been found in the X Display Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP)
which could allow a denial of service attack (DoS) by crashing the gdm
daemon. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
has assigned the names CAN-2003-0548 and CAN-2003-0549 to these issues.
This attack is only possible if XDMCP is enabled. XDMCP is not enabled by
default in Red Hat Enterprise Linux distributions. In addition is
documented best practise that XDMCP should only ever be run on trusted
networks.
Users of XDMCP in GDM should upgrade to these erratum packages which
contain backported security fixes are are not vulnerable to these issues.
Note that Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 is not vulnerable to CAN-2003-0547,
a vulnerability that allows a local user to read any text file, as it did
not have the "examine session errors" feature.

Vulnerability from csaf_redhat

Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: : GDM allows local user to read any file.
Notes
Topic
Updated GDM packages are available which correct a bug allowing local users
to read any text files on the system, and a denial of service issue if
XDMCP is enabled.
Details
GDM is the GNOME Display Manager for X.
Versions of GDM prior to 2.4.1.6 contain a bug where GDM will run as root
when examining the ~/.xsession-errors file when using the "examine session
errors" feature, allowing local users the ability to read any text file
on the system by creating a symlink. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0547 to
this issue.
Red Hat Linux 8.0 and 9 are vulnerable to this issue. Versions of GDM in
earlier releases did not have the "examine session errors" feature and
therefore are not vulnerable to this issue.
Also addressed by these erratum packages are two problems in the X Display
Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP) which allow a denial of service attack
(DoS) by crashing the gdm daemon. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CAN-2003-0548 and
CAN-2003-0549 to these issues.
This attack is only possible if XDMCP is enabled. XDMCP is not enabled by
default in Red Hat Linux distributions, and as documented XDMCP should only
ever be run on trusted networks.
Users of GDM are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages which disable
the "examine session errors" feature and contain backported security fixes
for the XDMCP issues.
