GDM2 2.14.13 (stable), the "Time And Again" Release
AOOH-GAH -------- If you have no clue what GDM is, refer to the documentation links at the bottom of this announcement. The 2.14.13 release is a stable release of the GNOME Display Manager (GDM) program with the following bug fixes and improvements: - Fix for CVE-2007-3381, a denial of service attack where the user can crash the GDM daemon with a carefuly crafted GDM sockets command and cause GDM to stop managing future displays. GDM now is much better about safegarding against NULL values returned from g_strsplit calls. Credit given to "JLANTHEA". (Brian Cameron) - Translation updates (Christophe Merlet) Note: GDM2 was originally written by Martin K. Petersen <mkp mkp net>. Much work has been done on GDM2 by George Lebl; and Brian Cameron now currently shares maintainership duties with the Queen of England. Note2: If installing from the tarball do note that make install overwrites most of the setup files, all except gdm.conf. It will however save backups with the .orig extension first. #ifndef GDM_DISABLE_DEPRECATED Note3: Note3 has been depracated ... #endif /* GDM_DISABLE_DEPRECATED */ Downloading: ============ Online Documentation - http://www.gnome.org/projects/gdm/ Latest Stable - http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gdm/2.18/ Latest Unstable - http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gdm/2.19/ Have fun, Brian _______________________________________________ gnome-announce-list mailing list gnome-announce-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-announce-list (Log in to post comments)
