Synopsis
Critical: kdelibs security update
Type/Severity
Security Advisory: Critical
Topic
Updated kdelibs packages that fix multiple security issues are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5.
This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red
Hat Security Response Team.
Description
The kdelibs packages provide libraries for the K Desktop Environment (KDE).
A flaw was found in the way the KDE CSS parser handled content for the
CSS "style" attribute. A remote attacker could create a specially-crafted
CSS equipped HTML page, which once visited by an unsuspecting user, could
cause a denial of service (Konqueror crash) or, potentially, execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Konqueror.
(CVE-2009-1698)
A flaw was found in the way the KDE HTML parser handled content for the
HTML "head" element. A remote attacker could create a specially-crafted
HTML page, which once visited by an unsuspecting user, could cause a denial
of service (Konqueror crash) or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with
the privileges of the user running Konqueror. (CVE-2009-1690)
An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was
found in the way the KDE JavaScript garbage collector handled memory
allocation requests. A remote attacker could create a specially-crafted
HTML page, which once visited by an unsuspecting user, could cause a denial
of service (Konqueror crash) or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with
the privileges of the user running Konqueror. (CVE-2009-1687)
Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported
patches to correct these issues. The desktop must be restarted (log out,
then log back in) for this update to take effect.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
