Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2002:080 (kdenetwork)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to kdenetwork announced via advisory MDKSA-2002:080. The SuSE security team discovered two vulnerabilities in the KDE lanbrowsing service during an audit. The LISa network daemon and reslisa, a restricted version of LISa are used to identify servers on the local network by using the URL type lan:// and rlan:// respectively. A buffer overflow was discovered in the lisa daemon that can be exploited by an attacker on the local network to obtain root privilege on a machine running the lisa daemon. Another buffer overflow was found in the lan:// URL handler, which can be exploited by a remote attacker to gain access to the victim user's account. Only Mandrake Linux 9.0 comes with the LISa network daemon all previous versions do not contain the network daemon and are as such not vulnerable. Affected versions: 9.0 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-2002:080 http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20021111-2.txt Risk factor : High
