ID de Prueba:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51429
Categoría:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Título:Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2003:668
Resumen:NOSUMMARY
Descripción:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLA-2003:668.

KDE is a very popular graphical desktop environment available for
GNU/Linux and other operating systems.

In several cases, kde applications call the ghostview program to
handle PS and PDF files in an insecure way (without the
-DPARANOIDSAFER or -SAFER parameters), which may allow attackers to
execute commands using crafted PS/PDF files[1,3]. Since these files
can came from remote or untrusted sources (e-mail, web sites and
network connections), remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability
to execute arbitrary commands in the user's context using such
sources as attack vectors.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned
the name CVE-2003-0204 to this issue[2].

Besides the fix for this vulnerability, the packages include other
minor bugfixes incorporated in the KDE 3.1.2 version[4] and the fixes
for the following problems reported in our bugzilla:

- #8229: Problem to mount a CD-ROM as a normal user[5]

- #8098: KDM default login is broken if KDE is not installed[6]

- #8190: kmplayer is the default player for all multimedia files[7].

* User of Conectiva Linux 7.0 and 8 are also exposed to this
vulnerability and can expect updated packages to be provided soon.


Solution:
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades
by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade'
