Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2011-10-08 13:39:52 UTC 
CVE-2011-1586 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-1586):
  Directory traversal vulnerability in the KGetMetalink::File::isValidNameAttr
  function in ui/metalinkcreator/metalinker.cpp in KGet in KDE SC 4.6.2 and
  earlier allows remote attackers to create arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot)
  in the name attribute of a file element in a metalink file.  NOTE: this
  vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2010-1000.
Comment 1 Andreas K. Hüttel archtester gentoo-dev 2011-10-16 11:14:35 UTC 
No vulnerable versions in the tree anymore, nothing left to do for kde.
