Version     : 1.6.0
Release     : 12.fc15
URL         : http://www.rdesktop.org/
Summary     : X client for remote desktop into Windows Terminal Server
Description :
rdesktop is an open source client for Windows NT Terminal Server and
Windows 2000 & 2003 Terminal Services, capable of natively speaking
Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) in order to present the user's NT
desktop. Unlike Citrix ICA, no server extensions are required.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update fixes a security issue in rdesktop 1.6.0.

A directory traversal flaw was found in the way rdesktop shared a local path
with a remote server. If a user connects to a malicious server with rdesktop,
the server could use this flaw to cause rdesktop to read and write to arbitrary,
local files accessible to the user running rdesktop. (CVE-2011-1595)

Fedora would like to thank Cendio AB for reporting this issue. Cendio AB
acknowledges an anonymous contributor working with the SecuriTeam Secure
Disclosure program as the original reporter.
