Hi, some bugs in konversation were posted to the public. Here are the links: http://wouter.coekaerts.be/konversation.html : http://wouter.coekaerts.be/files/konversation-parse.diff http://wouter.coekaerts.be/files/konversation-quickconnect.diff http://wouter.coekaerts.be/files/konversation-scripts.diff Konversation was not part of SL 8.1, right?

Looks like konversation was never part of a maintained product. Please correct me if I was wrong. X-Ref: CAN-2005-0129 CAN-2005-0130 CAN-2005-0131 http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20050121-1.txt
Sorry, I was on vacation for the last three weeks. I'll take care of it ASAP. Konversation is part of the box product only indeed, and I'll have to look whether the problem also applies to 0.14 (I don't think so, but I'll check)
I just checked: 0.14 (SL 9.2) is also affected by the quick button bug and the script command injection issue. 0.9 (SL 8.2), 0.12 (SL 9.0) and 0.13 (SL 9.1) are affected by the quick button bug. Oh dear... The script command injection issue is a potentially serious one, the quick button bug is mostly harmless, though. The quick connection bug is probably the most serious one, but only present in 0.15, which is the version in STABLE. I'll try to prepare the updates tomorrow. For the reference numbers: CAN-2005-0129 buttons (konversation-parse.diff) CAN-2005-0130 insecure scripts (konversation-scripts.diff) CAN-2005-0131 quick connect (konversation-quickconnect.diff) (Just to get the patchinfo right without having to look up what's behind the CAN numbers)
Okay, fixed it for STABLE first due to time constraints. The others will follow.
Submitted packages for SL 8.2, 9.0, 9.1 and 9.2 as well as the patchinfo.
thanks
reassigned...
packages approved (were box only).
