Synopsis:	Important: kdelibs security update
Issue date:	2009-06-25
CVE Names:	CVE-2009-1698

A flaw was found in the way the KDE CSS parser handled content for the
CSS "style" attribute. A remote attacker could create a 
specially-crafted CSS equipped HTML page, which once visited 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-2009-1698)

The desktop must be restarted (log out, then log back in) for this 
update to take effect.
