Subject: kdelibs: CAN-2004-1145: Konqueror Java Vulnerability

Package: kdelibs
Version: 4:3.3.1-4
Severity: grave
Tags: security, fixed-in-experimental

  CAN-2004-1145 is about a vulnerability in the Konqueror Java code that
  allows applets to bypass the sandbox environment in which they are run.

  KDE 3.2.3 and 3.3.1 are vulnerable, 3.3.2 is not. The KDE Security
  Advisory [1] provides a patch for KDE 3.2.3, but for KDE 3.3.1 the
  recommended solution is 'upgrade to 3.3.2'.

    [1] http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20041220-1.txt

  We (the members of the KDE Packaging Team) will have over the next
  days a look at the possibilities of backporting the fix. Depending on
  our findings, we'll either upload a fixed kdelibs 3.3.1 or kdelibs
  3.3.2 will have to make its way into sarge (but most likely after the
  3.3.1 transition is complete).

severity 286521 important

thanks mate, see you again after the transition

  In agreement with the Release Team, I'm downgrading the severity of
  the above three security bugs in KDE to important, so that KDE 3.3 can
  enter sarge. See this thread [1] for more info.

    [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2005/01/msg00004.html

  The severity will be restored right after the transition, and uploads
  to sid will shortly follow. Just to say what is going to happen:
  kdebase 3.3.1-4 will be uploaded first (along with a arts 1.3.2-2, not
  security related). While buildds churn these two, a kdelibs 3.3.2-1
  upload to sid will be prepared, and uploaded as soon as kdebase+arts
  is built in all arches.

  We need to upload kdelibs 3.3.2 since the fix for CAN-2004-1145 (the
  Java Vulnerability) is not easily backportable to 3.3.1. Having
  kdelibs 3.3.2 with the rest of packages being at 3.3.1 is a safe mix;
  in any case, we will test prior to uploading and the urgency won't be
  set to high.

  Cheers,

I assume it affects Warty, then, or the bug would be closed. Who is working on

Warty is already fixed:
