Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2024-0214)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'plasma-workspace' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0214 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'plasma-workspace' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0214 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
KSmserver, KDE's XSMP manager, incorrectly allows connections via ICE
based purely on the host, allowing all local connections. This allows
another user on the same machine to gain access to the session
manager.
A well crafted client could use the session restore feature to execute
arbitrary code as the user on the next boot.

Affected Software/OS:
'plasma-workspace' package(s) on Mageia 9.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
6.8
