Category:Turbolinux Local Security Tests
Title:Turbolinux TLSA-2003-45 (kdelibs)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to kdelibs
announced via advisory TLSA-2003-45.

Kdelibs are main libraries for the K Desktop Environment.
Konqueror may inadvertently send authentication credentials to
websites other than the intended website in clear text via the HTTP-referer
header when authentication credentials are passed as part of a URL in the
form of http://user:password@host/

Users of Konqueror may unknowingly distribute website
authentication credentials to third parties with links on the password
protected website. This may make it possible for those third parties to
gain unauthorized access to the password protected website.

Solution: Please use the turbopkg (zabom) tool to apply the update.
