Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions KDE Plasma Workspace versions prior to 5.12.0

Description An issue in the notifications engine allows remote attackers to discover client IP addresses via a URL in a notification. This can be achieved by using the src attribute of an IMG element.

Recommendations For versions prior to 5.12.0, update to version 5.12.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of notifications that include URLs to minimize the risk of IP address discovery.
