NASL family Red Hat Local Security Checks NASL id REDHAT-RHSA-2004-005.NASL description Updated kdepim packages are now available that fix a local buffer overflow vulnerability. The K Desktop Environment (KDE) is a graphical desktop for the X Window System. The KDE Personal Information Management (kdepim) suite helps you to organize your mail, tasks, appointments, and contacts. The KDE team found a buffer overflow in the file information reader of VCF files. An attacker could construct a VCF file so that when it was opened by a victim it would execute arbitrary commands. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2003-0988 to this issue. Users of kdepim are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages which contain a backported security patch that corrects this issue. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 12447 published 2004-07-06 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2004-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/12447 title RHEL 3 : kdepim (RHSA-2004:005) code #%NASL_MIN_LEVEL 80502 # # (C) Tenable Network Security, Inc. # # The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were # extracted from Red Hat Security Advisory RHSA-2004:005.
