  <synopsis>
    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in components shipped with
    LTSP which allow remote attackers to compromise terminal clients.

    LTSP version 4.2, ships prebuilt copies of programs such as the Linux
    Kernel, the X.org X11 server (GLSA 200705-06, GLSA 200710-16, GLSA
    200801-09), libpng (GLSA 200705-24, GLSA 200711-08), Freetype (GLSA
    200705-02, GLSA 200705-22) and OpenSSL (GLSA 200710-06, GLSA 200710-30)
    which were subject to multiple security vulnerabilities since 2006.
    Please note that the given list of vulnerabilities might not be
    exhaustive.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could possibly exploit vulnerabilities in the
    aforementioned programs and execute arbitrary code, disclose sensitive
    data or cause a Denial of Service within LTSP 4.2 clients.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    LTSP 4.2 is not maintained upstream in favor of version 5. Since
    version 5 is not yet available in Gentoo, the package has been masked.
    We recommend that users unmerge LTSP:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --unmerge net-misc/ltsp</code>
    <p>
    If you have a requirement for Linux Terminal Servers, please either set
    up a terminal server by hand or use one of the distributions that
    already migrated to LTSP 5. If you want to contribute to the
    integration of LTSP 5 in Gentoo, or want to follow its development,
    find details in bug 177580.
    </p>
  </resolution>
