Fedora 11 : kdelibs3-3.5.10-13.fc11 (2009-8046)

high Nessus Plugin ID 40413

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

This update fixes several security issues in the KDE 3 compatibility version of KHTML (CVE-2009-1725, CVE-2009-1690, CVE-2009-1687, CVE-2009-1698, CVE-2009-2537) which may lead to a denial of service or potentially even arbitrary code execution. In addition, the package was fixed to build with the latest version of automake.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected kdelibs3 package.
