    Package : kconfig
    CVE ID : CVE-2019-14744

    Dominik Penner discovered that KConfig, the KDE configuration settings framework, supported a feature to define shell command execution in
    .desktop files. If a user is provided with a malformed .desktop file
    (e.g. if it's embedded into a downloaded archive and it gets opened in
    a file browser) arbitrary commands could get executed. This update
    removes this feature.

    For the oldstable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed
    in version 5.28.0-2+deb9u1.

    For the stable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in
    version 5.54.0-1+deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your kconfig packages.

    For the detailed security status of kconfig please refer to
    its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/kconfig
