Hi.

From: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=714588


It seems that per default (and I even found no way to disable it)
x2goclient (and perhaps other
related tools?) transmit the content of the clipboard to the remote
host.

As this may easily contain passwords or other sensitive information,
this is a extremely
critical hole.


Cheers,
Chris.
