Main Inclusion Report for ltspfsd

Requirements

  1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/l/ltspfsd, available for all supported architectures

  2. Rationale: Needed for LTSP localdevice support

  3. Security:

    • No CVE entries.

    • No Secunia history.

    • No binaries running as root or suid/sgid.
    • Does open port 9220 on LTSP thin clients, does only accept Xauthenticated connections.
    • Source code review:
      • common.c: Replace sprintf/system with fork/execv (buffer overflow, shell code injection)

      • UPDATE: Just fixed locally.
  4. Quality assurance:

    • Package works out of the box without configuration.
    • Package does not ask any debconf questions higher than priority 'normal'.
    • Not in debian yet (the ltsp people expressed interest to get it in though)
    • Active cvs only (see the text, upstream will move to LP/bzr).

    • No critical bugs in upstream bug tracker (upstream will move to malone)

    • Does not deal with exotic hardware which we cannot support.
  5. Standards compliance:

    • Meets the FHS, Debian Policy

    • Standard debhelper packaging, no patch system, no libs.
  6. Dependencies:

    • All in main.
