Synopsis: Critical: kdegraphics security update
Issue date: 2009-06-25
CVE Names: CVE-2009-0945 CVE-2009-1709
A use-after-free flaw was found in the KDE KSVG animation element
implementation. A remote attacker could create a specially-crafted SVG
image, which once opened 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-2009-1709)
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the KDE, KSVG SVGList
interface implementation. A remote attacker could create a
specially-crafted SVG image, which once opened by an unsuspecting user,
would cause memory corruption, leading to a denial of service (Konqueror
crash). (CVE-2009-0945)
The desktop must be restarted (log out, then log back in) for this
update to take effect.
