Description:
Debian has issued an update for ldm. This fixes a security issue, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.

The security issue is caused due to improper access restrictions being set when establishing X11 forwarding sessions. This can be exploited to connect to the X server running on an affected LTSP client and e.g. grab keyboard input.

Solution:
Apply updated packages.
