Debian Security Advisory DSA-1916-1 security@debian.org

October 23, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : kdelibs
Vulnerability : insufficient input validation
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
Debian bug : 546212
CVE ID : CVE-2009-2702
Dan Kaminsky and Moxie Marlinspike discovered that kdelibs, core libraries from
the official KDE release, does not properly handle a '\0' 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.
For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-8etch3
Due to a bug in the archive system, the fix for the stable distribution
(lenny), will be released as version 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-0lenny3 once it is
available.
For the testing distribution (squeeze), and the unstable distribution (sid),
this problem has been fixed in version 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-2.1
We recommend that you upgrade your kdelibs pakcages.
