Summary
Security update for gdm
Details

This update for gdm provides the following fixes:

This security issue was fixed:

  • CVE-2018-14424: The daemon in GDM did not properly unexport display objects from its D-Bus interface when they are destroyed, which allowed a local attacker to trigger a use-after-free via a specially crafted sequence of D-Bus method calls, resulting in a denial of service or potential code execution (bsc#1103737)

These non-security issues were fixed:

  • Enable pam_keyinit module (bsc#1081947)
  • Fix a build race in SLE (bsc#1103093)
