Synopsis ========
KDE is vulnerable to a local Denial of Service attack.
Background ==========
KDE is a feature-rich graphical desktop environment for Linux and Unix-like Operating Systems. DCOP is KDE's simple IPC/RPC mechanism.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 kde-base/kdelibs < 3.3.2-r7 >= 3.3.2-r7 *>= 3.2.3-r8
Description ===========
Sebastian Krahmer discovered that it is possible to stall the dcopserver of other users.
Impact ======
An attacker could exploit this to cause a local Denial of Service by stalling the dcopserver in the authentication process. As a result all desktop functionality relying on DCOP will cease to function.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All kdelibs users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose kde-base/kdelibs
References ==========

Availability ============
This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website:
