Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.880749
Category:CentOS Local Security Checks
Title:CentOS Update for kdelibs CESA-2009:1128 centos3 i386
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'kdelibs'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'kdelibs'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
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.

Affected Software/OS:
kdelibs on CentOS 3

Solution:
Please install the updated packages.
