Mandrake alert: Updated kde3 packages fix arbitrary command execution
A vulnerability was discovered by the KDE team in the way that KDE uses Ghostscript for processing PostScript and PDF files. A malicious attacker could provide a carefully constructed PDF or PostScript file to an end user (via web or mail) that could lead to the execution of arbitrary commands as the user viewing the file. The vulnerability can be triggered even by the browser generating a directory listing with thumbnails.

Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
________________________________________________________________________
Package name: kde3
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2003:049
Date: April 17th, 2003
Affected versions: 9.0, 9.1, Corporate Server 2.1
________________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
A vulnerability was discovered by the KDE team in the way that KDE
uses Ghostscript for processing PostScript and PDF files. A malicious
attacker could provide a carefully constructed PDF or PostScript file
to an end user (via web or mail) that could lead to the execution of
arbitrary commands as the user viewing the file. The vulnerability
can be triggered even by the browser generating a directory listing
with thumbnails.
All users are encouraged to upgrade to these new kdegraphics, kdebase,
and kdelibs packages that contain patches to correct the problem.
This issue is corrected upstream in KDE 3.0.5b and KDE 3.1.1a.
