Debian 3.0: DSA-204-1 critical: Kdelibs Remote Command Execution

The KDE team has discovered a vulnerability in the support for various
network protocols via the KIO The implementation of the rlogin and
protocol allows a carefully crafted URL in an HTML page, HTML email or
other KIO-enabled application to execute arbitrary commands on the
system using the victim's account on the vulnerable machine.

This problem has been fixed by disabling rlogin and telnet in version
2.2.2-13.woody.5 for the current stable distribution (woody) and in
version 2.2.2-14.1 for the unstable distribution (sid). The old
stable distribution (potato) is not affected since it doesn't contain
KDE.

is not yet available.

We recommend that you upgrade your kdelibs3 package immediately.
