-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-1556 2010-02-09 04:26:06 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : gnome-screensaver Product : Fedora 12 Version : 2.28.2 Release : 1.fc12 URL : http://www.gnome.org Summary : GNOME Screensaver Description : gnome-screensaver is a screen saver and locker that aims to have simple, sane, secure defaults and be well integrated with the desktop. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: gnome-screensaver currently doesn't deal with monitors getting removed properly. If the unlock dialog is on the removed monitor then the unlock dialog and its associated keyboard grab are not moved to an existing monitor when the monitor removal is processed. This means that users can gain access to the locked system by placing the mouse pointer on an external monitor and then disconnect the external monitor. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609337 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Feb 8 2010 Ray Strode <rstrode@redhat.com> 2.28.2-1 - Don't lose grab when monitor is removed (CVE-2010-0414, #562217)) * Fri Jan 29 2010 Jon McCann <jmccann@redhat.com> 2.28.1-2 - Try again * Fri Jan 29 2010 Jon McCann <jmccann@redhat.com> 2.28.1-1 - Update to 2.28.1 * Fri Dec 11 2009 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com> 2.28.0-8 - Properly handle cmdline parsing errors in popsquares (#546656) * Thu Dec 3 2009 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com> 2.28.0-7 - Drop an unwanted dependency -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #562217 - CVE-2010-0414 gnome-screensaver: loses its unlock dialog and keyboard grab sometimes when unplugging monitor https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=562217 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
