| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2011-06-14 | CVE-2011-1709 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Gnome GDM GNOME Display Manager (gdm) before 2.32.2, when glib 2.28 is used, enables execution of a web browser with the uid of the gdm account, which allows local users to gain privileges via vectors involving the x-scheme-handler/http MIME type. | 7.2 |
| 2011-03-31 | CVE-2011-0727 | Link Following vulnerability in Gnome GDM GNOME Display Manager (gdm) 2.x before 2.32.1 allows local users to change the ownership of arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a (1) dmrc or (2) face icon file under /var/cache/gdm/. | 6.9 |
| 2009-09-04 | CVE-2009-2697 | Improper Authentication vulnerability in Gnome GDM The Red Hat build script for the GNOME Display Manager (GDM) before 2.16.0-56 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 omits TCP Wrapper support, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via XDMCP connections, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-5079. | 6.8 |
| 2007-08-07 | CVE-2007-3381 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Gnome GDM The GDM daemon in GNOME Display Manager (GDM) before 2.14.13, 2.16.x before 2.16.7, 2.18.x before 2.18.4, and 2.19.x before 2.19.5 does not properly handle NULL return values from the g_strsplit function, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (persistent daemon crash) via a crafted command to the daemon's socket, related to (1) gdm.c and (2) gdmconfig.c in daemon/, and (3) gdmconfig.c and (4) gdmflexiserver.c in gui/. | 1.5 |
| 2006-12-15 | CVE-2006-6105 | Local Format String vulnerability in GNOME Display Manager GDMChooser Format string vulnerability in the host chooser window (gdmchooser) in GNOME Foundation Display Manager (gdm) allows local users to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a hostname, which are used in an error dialog. | 4.3 |
| 2006-06-09 | CVE-2006-2452 | Authentication Bypass vulnerability in GNOME Foundation GDM Configure Login Manager GNOME GDM 2.8, 2.12, 2.14, and 2.15, when the "face browser" feature is enabled, allows local users to access the "Configure Login Manager" functionality using their own password instead of the root password, which can be leveraged to gain additional privileges. | 3.7 |
| 2006-04-25 | CVE-2006-1057 | Race Condition vulnerability in Gnome GDM 2.14 Race condition in daemon/slave.c in gdm before 2.14.1 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack when gdm performs chown and chgrp operations on the .ICEauthority file. | 3.7 |
| 2003-11-17 | CVE-2003-0794 | Local Denial Of Service vulnerability in Multiple GDM GDM 2.4.4.x before 2.4.4.4, and 2.4.1.x before 2.4.1.7, does not limit the number or duration of commands and uses a blocking socket connection, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) by sending commands and not reading the results. | 2.1 |
| 2003-11-17 | CVE-2003-0793 | Local Denial Of Service vulnerability in Multiple GDM GDM 2.4.4.x before 2.4.4.4, and 2.4.1.x before 2.4.1.7, does not restrict the size of input, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption). | 2.1 |
| 2003-08-27 | CVE-2003-0549 | Denial-Of-Service vulnerability in Kdebase The X Display Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP) support for GDM before 2.4.1.6 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a short authorization key name. | 5.0 |
