(Linux Terminal Server Project: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    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.
  
Impact :

    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.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
