DSA-1867-1 kdelibs -- several vulnerabilities

Date Reported:

19 Aug 2009

Affected Packages:

kdelibs

Vulnerable:

Yes

Security database references:

In the Debian bugtracking system: Bug 534952.
In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2009-1690, CVE-2009-1698, CVE-2009-1687.

More information:

Several security issues have been discovered in kdelibs, core libraries from the official KDE release. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

• CVE-2009-1690

  It was discovered that there is a use-after-free flaw in handling certain DOM event handlers. This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code, when visiting a malicious website.

• CVE-2009-1698

  It was discovered that there could be an uninitialised pointer when handling a Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) attr function call. This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code, when visiting a malicious website.

• CVE-2009-1687

  It was discovered that the JavaScript garbage collector does not handle allocation failures properly, which could lead to the execution of arbitrary code when visiting a malicious website.

For the oldstable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-8etch4.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-0lenny2.

For the testing distribution (squeeze) and the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your kdelibs packages.

Fixed in:

Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 (etch)
