Detail

Synopsis

Kwalletd password stores are vulnerable to codebook attacks.

Background

Kwalletd is is a credentials management application for KDE.

Description

Kwalletd in KWallet uses Blowfish with ECB mode instead of CBC mode when encrypting the password store.

Impact

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

All kwalletd users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=kde-apps/kwalletd-4.14.3-r1"
