GDM has been reported prone to multiple denial of service vulnerabilities that may be triggered by a local attacker. It has been reported that GDM does not perform sufficient restrictions on data that it receives. A local attacker may exploit this issue to cause the kernel to kill the GDM process. Additionally a separate issue has been reported to affect GDM. The issue has been reported to present itself due to an error while handling queries. It has been reported that an attacker may invoke a query request against GDM in a sufficient manner and trigger GDM into filling its send buffer. This will have the affect of preventing GDM from accepting new logins.
