"An integer underflow vulnerability was discovered in the rdesktop. If
an attacker could convince a victim to connect to a malicious RDP
server, the attacker could cause the victim's rdesktop to crash or,
possibly, execute an arbitrary code. (CVE-2008-1801)

Additionally, the following bug was fixed :

A missing command line option caused rdesktop to fail when using the
krdc remote desktop utility. Using krdc to connect to a terminal
server resulted in errors such as the following :

The version of rdesktop you are using ([version]) is too old :

rdesktop [version] or greater is required. A working patch for
rdesktop [version] can be found in KDE CVS.

In this updated package, krdc successfully connects to terminal
servers."
