- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Summary:
Updated kdegraphics packages that fully resolve a security issue in kpdf
are now available.
This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red
Hat Security Response Team.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64

3. Problem description:
The kdegraphics packages contain applications for the K Desktop Environment
including kpdf, a PDF file viewer.
Marcelo Ricardo Leitner discovered that a kpdf security fix, CVE-2005-3627,
was incomplete. Red Hat issued kdegraphics packages with this incomplete
fix in RHSA-2005:868. An attacker could construct a carefully crafted PDF
file that could cause kpdf to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code when
opened. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the name
CVE-2006-0746 to this issue.
Users of kpdf should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
backported patch to resolve this issue.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
