Bug#930687: unblock: rdesktop/1.8.6-2



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Hi Release Team,

There's several security issues fixed with rdesktop 1.8.6 and while it
has some regressions, I've backported the needed fixes for the -2
package version.
As upstream notes: "This is a security release to address various
buffer overflow and overrun issues in the rdesktop protocol handling.
rdesktop will now detect any attempts to access invalid areas and
refuse to continue. Users are adviced to upgrade as soon as possible."

The debdiff is a bit large, but hopefully can be accepted for Buster.

Thanks for consideration,
Laszlo/GCS
