Description of problem:
http://togami.com/~warren/archive/2003/gnome-terminal-bugcase
Save this file locally, and within gnome-terminal run "cat
gnome-terminal-bugcase".  It segfaulted on me once, otherwise it causes the
gnome-terminal window to resize, puts garbage in the title, and types "xterm" in
the terminal when you hit enter again.

Garbage in title

http://togami.com/~warren/archive/2003/gnome-terminal-shot2.png
Runs xterm

Maybe not security vulnerability, but keeping it closed just in case.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-terminal-2.3.2-1
vte-0.11.10-2

Comment 1 Rik van Riel 2004-01-14 20:44:57 UTC
in RHEL3,  with vte-0.11.10-3, this test file:
- puts junk in the display
- puts a different title in the titlebar
- resizes the terminal
- starts xterm

However, things don't crash and running "reset" makes the terminal
just fine again.
