RedHat: Important: kdelibs security update RHSA-2009:1128-01
Summary
The kdelibs packages provide libraries for the K Desktop Environment (KDE).
A flaw was found in the way the KDE CSS parser handled content for the
CSS "style" attribute. A remote attacker could create a specially-crafted
CSS equipped HTML page, which once visited by an unsuspecting user, could
cause a denial of service (Konqueror crash) or, potentially, execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Konqueror.
(CVE-2009-1698)
Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported
patch to correct this issue. The desktop must be restarted (log out, then
log back in) for this update to take effect.
Summary
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
