DSA-361-1 states that the vulnerabilities reported have been fixed in
2.2.2-13.woody.8 (and this is the version you can find in the
repository)... DSA-361-2 is the same advisory, except that it states
that the vulnerabilities have been fixed in 2.2.2-6woody2... and i think

addressed almost 2 years ago (well, not impossible with debian :) )...
but then, what's the purpose of 2.2.2-13.woody.8?

Really, i suspect a typo in the advisory. Or more likely, i haven't
understood too much about the whole thing.

Hope i've been clear enough (and forgive me for my little confidence

No.  It is a new version on the stable branch, which was created based on
older code at a later date.

DSA-361-2

2003-08-14 Thread Gian Piero Carrubba
Hi all,

can anyone explain me the DSA-361-2?
Does it mean that the vulnerabilities reported were already addressed in
woody in version 2.2.2-6woody2 ?
I haven't found 2.2.2-6woody2 in the changelog, however 2.2.2-6 has been
released in december 2001, so i've to assume fake vulnerabilities (CAN

[SECURITY] [DSA-361-2] New kdelibs-crypto packages fix multiple vulnerabilities

Debian Security Advisory DSA 361-2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
http://www.debian.org/security/ Matt Zimmerman
August 9th, 2003http://www.debian.org/security/faq

Package: kdelibs-crypto
Vulnerability  : several
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Ids: CAN-2003-0459, CAN-2003-0370

Two vulnerabilities were discovered in kdelibs:

- - CAN-2003-0459: KDE Konqueror for KDE 3.1.2 and earlier does not
  remove authentication credentials from URLs of the
  user:[EMAIL PROTECTED] form in the HTTP-Referer header, which could
  allow remote web sites to steal the credentials for pages that link
  to the sites.

- - CAN-2003-0370: Konqueror Embedded and KDE 2.2.2 and earlier does not
  validate the Common Name (CN) field for X.509 Certificates, which
  could allow remote attackers to spoof certificates via a
  man-in-the-middle attack.

These vulnerabilities are described in the following security
advisories from KDE:

http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20030729-1.txt
http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20030602-1.txt

For the current stable distribution (woody) these problems have been
fixed in version 2.2.2-6woody2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
kdelibs version 4:3.1.3-1.

We recommend that you update your kdelibs-crypto package.
