Systems affected: All versions of KDE up to KDE 3.2.3 inclusive. 2. Overview: The Konqueror webbrowser allows websites to load webpages into a frame of any other frame-based webpage that the user may have open. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0721 to this issue. 3. Impact: A malicious website could abuse Konqueror to insert its own frames into the page of an otherwise trusted website. As a result the user may unknowingly send confidential information intended for the trusted website to the malicious website. 4. Solution: Source code patches have been made available which fix these vulnerabilities. Contact your OS vendor / binary package provider for information about how to obtain updated binary packages. 5.
