Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50567
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2004:086 (kdelibs/kdebase)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to kdelibs/kdebase
announced via advisory MDKSA-2004:086.

A number of vulnerabilities were discovered in KDE that are corrected
with these update packages.

The integrity of symlinks used by KDE are not ensured and as a result
can be abused by local attackers to create or truncate arbitrary files
or to prevent KDE applications from functioning correctly
(CVE-2004-0689).

The DCOPServer creates temporary files in an insecure manner. These
temporary files are used for authentication-related purposes, so this
could potentially allow a local attacker to compromise the account of
any user running a KDE application (CVE-2004-0690). Note that only
KDE 3.2.x is affected by this vulnerability.

The Konqueror web browser allows websites to load web pages into a
frame of any other frame-based web page that the user may have open.
This could potentially allow a malicious website to make Konqueror
insert its own frames into the page of an otherwise trusted website
(CAN-02004-0721).

The Konqueror web browser also allows websites to set cookies for
certain country-specific top-level domains. This can be done to
make Konqueror send the cookies to all other web sites operating
under the same domain, which can be abused to become part of a
session fixation attack. All country-specific secondary top-level
domains that use more than 2 characters in the secondary part of the
domain name, and that use a secondary part other than com, net, mil,
org, gove, edu, or int are affected (CVE-2004-0746).

Affected versions: 10.0, 9.2

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
