CVE-2006-0019
CVSS v2.0
7.5
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
kdelibs versions 3.2.0 through 3.5.0
kdelibs versions prior to 3.4.3-r1
Description
The issue is related to a heap-based buffer overflow in the encodeURI and decodeURI functions in the kjs JavaScript interpreter engine, which can be exploited remotely to execute arbitrary code via a crafted, UTF-8 encoded URI. This can lead to a violation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information.
Recommendations
For kdelibs versions 3.2.0 through 3.5.0, update to a version outside of this range to resolve the issue.
For kdelibs versions prior to 3.4.3-r1, update to version 3.4.3-r1 or later to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the kjs JavaScript interpreter engine until a patch is available.
