Comments: To: scientific-linux-errata@fnal.gov

Synopsis:	Moderate: kdebase security update
Issue date:	2007-10-08
CVE Names:	CVE-2007-4569 CVE-2007-3820 CVE-2007-4224

Kees Huijgen found a flaw in the way KDM handled logins when autologin and
"shutdown with password" were enabled.  A local user would have been able
to login via KDM as any user without requiring a password. (CVE-2007-4569)

Two Konqueror address spoofing flaws were discovered. A malicious web site
could spoof the Konqueror address bar, tricking a victim into believing the
page was from a different site. (CVE-2007-3820, CVE-2007-4224)
