    Package : kde4libs
    Vulnerability : several vulnerabilities
    Problem type : local (remote)
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Ids : CVE-2009-1690 CVE-2009-1698 CVE-2009-1687
    Debian Bugs : 534949

    Several security issues have been discovered in kde4libs, core libraries
    for all KDE 4 applications. 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 stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
    version 4:4.1.0-3+lenny1.

    The oldstable distribution (etch) does not contain kde4libs.

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

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 4:4.3.0-1.


    We recommend that you upgrade your kde4libs packages.
