The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200412-16 (kdelibs, kdebase: Multiple vulnerabilities)
Daniel Fabian discovered that the KDE core libraries contain a flaw allowing password disclosure by making a link to a remote file.
When creating this link, the resulting URL contains authentication credentials used to access the remote file (CAN 2004-1171).
The Konqueror webbrowser allows websites to load webpages into a window or tab currently used by another website (CAN-2004-1158).
Impact :
A malicious user could have access to the authentication credentials of other users depending on the file permissions.
A malicious website could use the window injection vulnerability to load content in a window apparently belonging to another website.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
