Package: rss-glx
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for rss-glx.
CVE-2007-5585[0]:
| xscreensaver 5.03 and earlier, when running without
| xscreensaver-gl-extras (GL extras) installed, crashes when
| /usr/bin/xscreensaver-gl-helper does not exist and a user attempts to
| unlock the screen, which allows attackers with physical access to gain
| access to the locked session.
If you fix this vulnerability please also include the CVE id
in your changelog entry.
So I think rss-glx should depend on xscreensaver-gl. I can't
reproduce xscreensaver crashing, however it will exit if the
xscreensaver-gl-helper program is missing.
For further information:
[0] http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-5585
Kind regards
Nico
