Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:105
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : kdebase
Date : June 15, 2006
Affected: 2006.0, Corporate 3.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

A problem with how kdm manages the ~/.dmrc file was discovered by
Ludwig Nussel. By using a symlink attack, a local user could get kdm
to read arbitrary files on the system, including privileged system
files and those belonging to other users.

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
