Insight
Insight
The kdegraphics packages contain applications for the K Desktop Environment, including kpdf, a PDF file viewer. Kees Cook discovered a flaw in the way kpdf displayed malformed fonts embedded in PDF files. An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that would cause kpdf to crash, or, potentially, execute arbitrary code when opened. (CVE-2008-1693) All kdegraphics users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to resolve this issue.
