USN115-1 : kdewebdev vulnerability |

kdewebdev vulnerability Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : These remote packages are missing security patches : - kdewebdev - kdewebdev-doc-html - kfilereplace - kimagemapeditor - klinkstatus - kommander - kommander-dev - kxsldbg - quanta - quanta-data Description : Eckhart Wörner discovered that Kommander opens files from remote and possibly untrusted locations without user confirmation. Since Kommander files can contain scripts, this would permit a possible hacker to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user opening the file. The updated Kommander will not automatically open files from remote locations, and files which do not end with ".kmdr" any more. Solution : Upgrade to : - kdewebdev-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) - kdewebdev-doc-html-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) - kfilereplace-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) - kimagemapeditor-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) - klinkstatus-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) - kommander-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) - kommander-dev-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) - kxsldbg-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) - quanta-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) - quanta-data-3.4.0-0ubuntu2.2 (Ubuntu 5.04) Network Security Threat Level: High Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2005 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2005 Michel Arboi |
