Detail

Problem Description:

Updated kdelibs packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.

This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64

3. Description:

The kdelibs packages provide libraries for the K Desktop Environment (KDE).

A flaw was found in the way the KDE CSS parser handled content for the CSS "style" attribute. A remote attacker could create a specially-crafted CSS equipped HTML page, which once visited by an unsuspecting user, could cause a denial of service (Konqueror crash) or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Konqueror. (CVE-2009-1698)

Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. The desktop must be restarted (log out, then log back in) for this update to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

506469 - CVE-2009-1698 kdelibs: KHTML CSS parser - incorrect handling CSS "style" attribute content (DoS, ACE)

Title: USN-822-1 -- kde4libs, kdelibs vulnerabilities
Description: It was discovered that KDE-Libs did not properly handle certain malformed SVG images. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted SVG image, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. This issue only affected Ubuntu 9.04. It was discovered that the KDE JavaScript garbage collector did not properly handle memory allocation failures. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. It was discovered that KDE-Libs did not properly handle HTML content in the head element. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. It was discovered that KDE-Libs did not properly handle the Cascading Style Sheets attr function call. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program
