MDKSA-2004:086: kdelibs/kdebase |
||
Check for the version of the kdelibs/kdebase package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2004:086 (kdelibs/kdebase). A number of vulnerabilities were discovered in KDE that are corrected with these update packages. The integrity of symlinks used by KDE are not ensured and as a result can be abused by local attackers to create or truncate arbitrary files or to prevent KDE applications from functioning correctly (CVE-2004-0689). The DCOPServer creates temporary files in an insecure manner. These temporary files are used for authentication-related purposes, so this could potentially permit a local attacker to compromise the account of any user running a KDE application (CVE-2004-0690). Note that only KDE 3.2.x is affected by this vulnerability. The Konqueror web browser permits websites to load web pages into a frame of any other frame-based web page that the user may have open. This could potentially permit a malicious website to make Konqueror insert its own frames into the page of an otherwise trusted website (CVE-2004-0721). The Konqueror web browser also permits websites to set cookies for certain country-specific top-level domains. This can be done to make Konqueror send the cookies to all other web sites operating under the same domain, which can be abused to become part of a session fixation attack. All country-specific secondary top-level domains that use more than 2 characters in the secondary part of the domain name, and that use a secondary part other than com, net, mil, org, gove, edu, or int are affected (CVE-2004-0746).
