Summary

The (1) Kate and (2) Kwrite applications in KDE KDE 3.2.x through 3.4.0 do not properly set the same permissions on the backup file as were set on the original file, which could allow local users and possibly remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.

    NASL idMANDRAKE_MDKSA-2005-122.NASL
    descriptionThe Kate and Kwrite programs create a file backup before saving a modified file. These backup files are created with default system permissions, even if the original file had more strict permissions set. The updated packages have been patched to address this issue.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the name CVE-2005-1920 to this issue.
