Synopsis:	Moderate: qspice-client security update
Issue date:	2010-08-25
CVE Names:	CVE-2010-2792

The qspice-client package provides the client side of the SPICE protocol.

A race condition was found in the way the SPICE Mozilla Firefox plug-in
and the SPICE client communicated. A local attacker could use this flaw
to trick the plug-in and the SPICE client into communicating over an
attacker-controlled socket, possibly gaining access to authentication
details, or resulting in a man-in-the-middle attack on the SPICE
connection. (CVE-2010-2792)

NOTE: Because qspice-client was originally only x86_64, there are
several dependencies for i386 going out with this errata.
