--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2004-293 2004-09-08 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 2 Name : kdebase Version : 3.2.2 Release : 6.FC2 Summary : K Desktop Environment - core files Description : Core applications for the K Desktop Environment. Included are: kdm (replacement for xdm), kwin (window manager), konqueror (filemanager, web browser, ftp client, ...), konsole (xterm replacement), kpanel (application starter and desktop pager), kaudio (audio server), kdehelp (viewer for kde help files, info and man pages), kthememgr (system for managing alternate theme packages) plus other KDE components (kcheckpass, kikbd, kscreensaver, kcontrol, kfind, kfontmanager, kmenuedit). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Andrew Tuitt reported that versions of KDE up to and including 3.2.3 create temporary directories with predictable names. A local attacker could prevent KDE applications from functioning correctly, or overwrite files owned by other users by creating malicious symlinks. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name CAN-2004-0689 to this issue. WESTPOINT internet reconnaissance services has discovered that the KDE web browser Konqueror allows websites to set cookies for certain country specific secondary top level domains. An attacker within one of the affected domains could construct a cookie which would be sent to all other websites within the domain leading to a session fixation attack. This issue does not affect popular domains such as .co.uk, .co.in, or .com. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name CAN-2004-0721 to this issue. A frame injection spoofing vulnerability has been discovered in the Konqueror web browser. This issue could allow a malicious website to show arbitrary content in a named frame of a different browser window. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name CAN-2004-0746 to this issue. All users of KDE are advised to upgrade to these packages, which contain backported patches from the KDE team for these issues. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Mon Sep 06 2004 Than Ngo6:3.2.2-6.FC2 - fix a bug in keyboard layout with xorg.x11, bug #121950 - fix df problem on AFS * Wed Sep 01 2004 Than Ngo 6:3.2.2-5.FC2 - Konqueror Frame Injection Vulnerability, CAN-2004-0721 --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/2/ 80f87d426b760776fc7fc03653ad30a6 SRPMS/kdebase-3.2.2-6.FC2.src.rpm 6bbf33f60b428bc3f2e0fac4fa09b64f x86_64/kdebase-3.2.2-6.FC2.x86_64.rpm 8eb7ca6d4dd1557114980885744ecdfd x86_64/kdebase-devel-3.2.2-6.FC2.x86_64.rpm 4e9b9094fc7abd21083de2c17b9f51f0 x86_64/debug/kdebase-debuginfo-3.2.2-6.FC2.x86_64.rpm a05b23c8202566417a5bc2d3a3a5cd88 i386/kdebase-3.2.2-6.FC2.i386.rpm bc6d4263395d4af1a4b89503ff4a8e28 i386/kdebase-devel-3.2.2-6.FC2.i386.rpm 1835604099fdd8c8ed532f5c15709c0d i386/debug/kdebase-debuginfo-3.2.2-6.FC2.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
