Mandriva Update for xscreensaver MDKSA-2007:097 (xscreensaver)

Solution
Please Install the Updated Packages.
Insight
A problem with the way xscreensaver verifies user passwords was discovered by Alex Yamauchi. When a system is using remote authentication (i.e. LDAP) for logins, a local attacker able to cause a network outage on the system could cause xscreensaver to crash, which would unlock the screen. Updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
Affected
xscreensaver on Mandriva Linux 2007.0, Mandriva Linux 2007.0/X86_64, Mandriva Linux 2007.1, Mandriva Linux 2007.1/X86_64
