Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:330

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : kdelibs

Date : December 10, 2009

Affected: Corporate 4.0

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in kdelibs:

 

The gdtoa (aka new dtoa) implementation in gdtoa/misc.c in

libc in FreeBSD 6.4 and 7.2, NetBSD 5.0, and OpenBSD 4.5 allows

context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application

crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large precision

value in the format argument to a printf function, related to an

array overrun. (CVE-2009-0689)

 

The JavaScript garbage collector in WebKit in Apple Safari before

4.0, iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.2.1, and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1

through 2.2.1 does not properly handle allocation failures, which

allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial

of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted

HTML document that triggers write access to an offset of a NULL

pointer. (CVE-2009-1687)

 

Use-after-free vulnerability in WebKit, as used in Apple Safari

before 4.0, iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.2.1, iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1

through 2.2.1, Google Chrome 1.0.154.53, and possibly other products,

allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial

of service (memory corruption and application crash) by setting an

unspecified property of an HTML tag that causes child elements to

be freed and later accessed when an HTML error occurs, related to

recursion in certain DOM event handlers. (CVE-2009-1690)

 

WebKit in Apple Safari before 4.0, iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.2.1,

and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.2.1 does not initialize a

pointer during handling of a Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) attr function

call with a large numerical argument, which allows remote attackers to

execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption

and application crash) via a crafted HTML document. (CVE-2009-1698)

 

WebKit in Apple Safari before 4.0.2, KHTML in kdelibs in KDE, QtWebKit

(aka Qt toolkit), and possibly other products does not properly handle

numeric character references, which allows remote attackers to execute

arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and

application crash) via a crafted HTML document. (CVE-2009-1725)

 

KDE Konqueror allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service

(memory consumption) via a large integer value for the length property

of a Select object, a related issue to CVE-2009-1692. (CVE-2009-2537)

 

KDE KSSL in kdelibs 3.5.4, 4.2.4, and 4.3 does not properly handle a

'\0' (NUL) character in a domain name in the Subject Alternative Name

field of an X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers

to spoof arbitrary SSL servers via a crafted certificate issued by a

legitimate Certification Authority, a related issue to CVE-2009-2408

(CVE-2009-2702).

 

This update provides a solution to this vulnerability.
