Synopsis: Low: gdm security and bug fix update Issue date: 2010-08-26 CVE Names: CVE-2007-5079 A flaw was found in the way the gdm package was built. The gdm package was missing TCP wrappers support on 64-bit platforms, which could result in an administrator believing they had access restrictions enabled when they did not. (CVE-2007-5079) This update also fixes the following bug: * sometimes the system would hang instead of properly shutting down when a user chose "Shut down" from the login screen. (BZ#625818) GDM must be restarted for this update to take effect. Rebooting achieves this, but changing the runlevel from 5 to 3 and back to 5 also restarts GDM.
