Mandrake alert: kdelibs update
A vulnerability was discovered in KDE's SSL implementation in that it does not check the basic constraints on a certificate and as a result may accept certificates as valid that were signed by an issuer who is not authorized to do so. This can lead to Konqueror and other SSL- enabled KDE software falling victim to a man-in-the-middle attack without being aware of the invalid certificate. This will trick users into thinking they are on a secure connection with a valid site when in fact the site is different from that which they intended to connect to. This is fixed in KDE 3.0.3, and the KDE team provided a patch for KDE 2.2.2. This patch has been applied to the following packages. After upgrading kdelibs, you must restart KDE in order for the fix to work.

Problem Description:
A vulnerability was discovered in KDE's SSL implementation in that it
does not check the basic constraints on a certificate and as a result
may accept certificates as valid that were signed by an issuer who is
not authorized to do so. This can lead to Konqueror and other SSL-
enabled KDE software falling victim to a man-in-the-middle attack
without being aware of the invalid certificate. This will trick users
into thinking they are on a secure connection with a valid site when
in fact the site is different from that which they intended to
connect to.
This is fixed in KDE 3.0.3, and the KDE team provided a patch for
KDE 2.2.2. This patch has been applied to the following packages.
After upgrading kdelibs, you must restart KDE in order for the fix to

To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate. The verification of md5
checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one
of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm". A list of
FTP mirrors can be obtained from:
http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/ftp.php
Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of
the downloaded package. You can do this with the command:
rpm --checksig <filename>
All packages are signed by MandrakeSoft for security. You can obtain
the GPG public key of the Mandrake Linux Security Team from:
https://www.mandrakesecure.net/RPM-GPG-KEYS
Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to
update.
