Mandriva Linux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________

Package name: kdeedu
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2005:159
Date: September 6th, 2005

Affected versions: 10.1, 10.2
______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Ben Burton notified the KDE security team about several tempfile
handling related vulnerabilities in langen2kvtml, a conversion script
for kvoctrain. This vulnerability was initially discovered by Javier
Fernández-Sanguino Peña.

The script uses known filenames in /tmp which allow an local attacker
to overwrite files writeable by the user (manually) invoking the
conversion script.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this problem.
