Name        : kdelibs3
Product     : Fedora 25
Version     : 3.5.10
Release     : 84.fc25
URL         : https://kde.org/
Summary     : KDE 3 Libraries
Description :
Libraries for KDE 3:
KDE Libraries included: kdecore (KDE core library), kdeui (user interface),
kfm (file manager), khtmlw (HTML widget), kio (Input/Output, networking),
kspell (spelling checker), jscript (javascript), kab (addressbook),
kimgio (image manipulation).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This kdelibs3 (KDE 3 compatibility libraries) update fixes the security issues:
* CVE-2016-6232 (karchive): Extraction of tar files possible to arbitrary system
locations * CVE-2017-6410 (kio): Information Leak when accessing https when
using a malicious PAC file  for the KDE 3 compatibility libraries. (Security
updates for KDE Frameworks 5 (kf5-karchive resp. kf5-kio) and for the KDE 4
compatibility libraries (kdelibs 4) have already been submitted.)  In addition,
the KDE 3 compatibility version of KCrash was modified to use the DrKonqi from
Plasma 5 rather than from kde-runtime 4. (The original KDE 3 DrKonqi was already
dropped years ago.) The kde-runtime 4 DrKonqi is not installed by default and
will be removed entirely in future Fedora versions, the Plasma 5 version of
DrKonqi can also be used for legacy applications.
