+ <background>
+ <p>
+ KDE is a feature-rich graphical desktop environment for Linux and
+ Unix-like Operating Systems. KHTML is the HTML interpreter used in
+ Konqueror and other parts of KDE.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The KHTML code allows for the execution of JavaScript code located
+ inside the "Title" HTML element, a related issue to the Safari error
+ found by Jose Avila.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="low">
+ <p>
+ When viewing a HTML page that renders unsanitized attacker-supplied
+ input in the page title, Konqueror and other parts of KDE will execute
+ arbitrary JavaScript code contained in the page title, allowing for the
+ theft of browser session data or cookies.
+ </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 "&gt;=kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.5-r8"</code>
