Synopsis ========
Kopete is vulnerable to several input validation vulnerabilities which may lead to execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
KDE is a feature-rich graphical desktop environment for Linux and Unix-like Operating Systems. Kopete (also part of kdenetwork) is the KDE Instant Messenger.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 kde-base/kdenetwork < 3.4.1-r1 >= 3.4.1-r1 *>= 3.3.2-r2 2 kde-base/kopete < 3.4.1-r1 >= 3.4.1-r1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 affected packages on all of their supported architectures. -------------------------------------------------------------------
Description ===========
Kopete contains an internal copy of libgadu and is therefore subject to several input validation vulnerabilities in libgadu.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code or crash Kopete.
Workaround ==========
Delete all Gadu Gadu contacts.
Resolution ==========
All Kopete users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose kde-base/kdenetwork
