<title>multi-gnome-terminal: Information leak</title>

<synopsis>
|

|
|
Active keystroke logging in multi-gnome-terminal has been discovered in
|
||
|
|
potentially world-readable files. This could allow any authorized user on
|
||
|
|
the system to read sensitive data, including passwords.

<p>
|
||
|
|
multi-gnome-terminal contains debugging code that has been known to output
|
||
|
|
active keystrokes to a potentially unsafe location. Output has been seen to
|
||
|
|
show up in the '.xsession-errors' file in the users home directory. Since
|
||
|
|
this file is world-readable on many machines, this bug has the potential to
|
||
|
|
leak sensitive information to anyone using the system.
|
||
|

<impact type="normal">
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Any authorized user on the local machine has the ability to read any
|
||
|
|
critical data that has been entered into the terminal, including passwords.

<workaround>

<p>

There is no known workaround at this time.

All multi-gnome-terminal users should upgrade to the latest version:
