! NOT PUBLIC! KEEP INSIDE SUSE. KDE Security Advisory: Kommander untrusted code execution Original Release Date: 2005-04-20 URL: http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20050420-1.txt 0. References ? 1. Systems affected: Quanta 3.1.x, KDE 3.2 and new up to including KDE 3.4.0. 2. Overview: Kommander is a visual editor and interpreter to edit and interpret visual dialogs and execute scripts attached to dialog actions. Kommander executes without user confirmation data files from possibly untrusted locations. As they contain scripts, the user might accidentally run arbitrary code. 3. Impact: Remotly supplied kommander files from untrusted sources are executed without confirmation. 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. Patch: A patch for KDE 3.4 is available from ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/security_patches : XXXXX 6.

CAN-2005-0754
qa failed on sles9. kommander does not ask to open the file.
adrian, we need new fixes packages ... ;)
SLES9 does start the kmdr editor and not the kmdr executor, when clicking on the link to the file. So the check never runs, but it should not matter, since the editor does not run file. Do you accept this ?
please review and approve for qa Adrians explanation is ok for me and it would be ready for QA approval I guess
upates released.
