Debian Security Advisory DSA-1916-1                  security@debian.org

Package        : kdelibs
Vulnerability  : insufficient input validation
Problem type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
Debian bug     : 546212
CVE ID         : CVE-2009-2702

Dan Kaminsky and Moxie Marlinspike discovered that kdelibs, core libraries from
the official KDE release, does not properly handle a '\0' character in a domain
name in the Subject Alternative Name field of an X.509 certificate, which allows
man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof arbitrary SSL servers via a crafted
certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority.


For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-8etch3

Due to a bug in the archive system, the fix for the stable distribution
(lenny), will be released as version 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-0lenny3 once it is
available.

For the testing distribution (squeeze), and the unstable distribution (sid),
this problem has been fixed in version 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-2.1


We recommend that you upgrade your kdelibs pakcages.
