+ Unix-like Operating Systems. Konqueror is the KDE web browser and file

+ applets to have access to restricted Java classes.

+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could embed a malicious Java applet in a web page and
+ entice a victim to view it. This applet can then bypass security
+ restrictions and execute any command, or access any file with the
+ rights of the user running Konqueror.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All kdelibs users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose kde-base/kdelibs</code>
+ </resolution>
