Package: gdm Version: 2.16.1-1 Severity: normal According to the GDM Reference Manual the service gdm should control access to the XDMCP service. Since gdm depends on libwrap0, I assume it is compiled with TCP wrappers support.
The configuration on the host running gdm is as follows: /etc/hosts.allow ALL: 127.0.0.1 /etc/hosts.deny ALL: ALL /etc/gdm/gdm.conf [xdcmp] Enabled=true HonorIndirect=false On the client host the command used is: $ Xnest :1 -query <gdmhost> and it succeeds: the greeter is shown and logins are possible. I believe it should not succeed since everything is denied by TCP wrappers.
