Description:
Dave Aitel has reported a vulnerability in Common Desktop Environment (CDE), which may be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a double-free error in dtlogin when parsing XDMCP (X Display Manager Control Protocol) requests. This can potentially be exploited via a specially crafted XDMCP request to execute arbitrary code on an affected system.
