DSA 1868-1: New kde4libs packages fix several vulnerabilities

Posted by Bob on: 08/19/2009 02:05 PM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

The Debian Security Team published a new security update for Debian GNU/Linux. Here the announcement:




-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Security Advisory DSA-1868-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Steffen Joeris
August 19, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.


Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
