Synopsis ========
Multiple vulnerabilities in start_kdeinit could possibly allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code with root privileges.
Background ==========
KDE is a feature-rich graphical desktop environment for Linux and Unix-like operating systems. start_kdeinit is a wrapper for kdeinit.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 kde-base/kdelibs < 4.0 *>=3D 3.5.8-r4=
*>=3D 3.5.9-r3=
> 4.0 < 3.5.5
Description ===========
Vulnerabilities have been reported in the processing of user-controlled data by start_kdeinit, which is setuid root by default.
Impact ======
A local attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with root privileges, cause a Denial of Service or send Unix signals to other processes, when start_kdeinit is setuid root.
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 ">=3Dkde-base/kdelibs-3.5.8-r4"
