Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2003:049 (kde3)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to kde3 announced via advisory MDKSA-2003:049. A vulnerability was discovered by the KDE team in the way that KDE uses Ghostscript for processing PostScript and PDF files. A malicious attacker could provide a carefully constructed PDF or PostScript file to an end user (via web or mail) that could lead to the execution of arbitrary commands as the user viewing the file. The vulnerability can be triggered even by the browser generating a directory listing with thumbnails. All users are encouraged to upgrade to these new kdegraphics, kdebase, and kdelibs packages that contain patches to correct the problem. This issue is corrected upstream in KDE 3.0.5b and KDE 3.1.1a. Affected versions: 9.0, 9.1, Corporate Server 2.1 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2003:049 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2003-0204 http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20030409-1.txt Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.5
