------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-3607-1 debian-lts@lists.debian.org https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Tobias Frost October 07, 2023 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : gnome-boxes Version : 3.30.3-2+deb10u1 CVE ID : Debian Bug : It has been found that the update of freerdp2 (see DLA-3606-1) exposed a bug in gnome-boxes, which breaks RDP connections with the symtoms of hangs and black screens. Note: sha256 is now used instead of sha1 to fingerprint certificates. This will invalidate all hosts in FreeRDP known_hosts2 file, $HOME/.config/freerdp/known_hosts2. In case of problems with the connection, try removing that file. For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version 3.30.3-2+deb10u1. We recommend that you upgrade your gnome-boxes packages. For the detailed security status of gnome-boxes please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/gnome-boxes Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
