CVSS v3.1 |
| KDE allows local users to execute arbitrary commands by setting the KDEDIR environmental variable to modify the search path that KDE uses to locate its executables. |
| KDM in KDE 3.1.3 and earlier does not verify whether the pam_setcred function call succeeds, which may allow attackers to gain root privileges by triggering error conditions within PAM modules, as demonstrated in certain configurations of the MIT pam_krb5 module. |
| Multiple integer overflows in xpdf 3.0, and other packages that use xpdf code such as CUPS, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code, a different set of vulnerabilities than those identified by CVE-2004-0888. |
| Opera 7.54 and earlier uses kfmclient exec to handle unknown MIME types, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a shortcut or launcher that contains an Exec entry. |
| KPPP 2.1.2 in KDE 3.1.5 and earlier, when setuid root without certain wrappers, does not properly close a privileged file descriptor for a domain socket, which allows local users to read and write to /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf and gain control over DNS name resolution by opening a number of file descriptors before executing kppp. |
| The patch for integer overflow vulnerabilities in Xpdf 2.0 and 3.0 (CVE-2004-0888) is incomplete for 64-bit architectures on certain Linux distributions such as Red Hat, which could leave Xpdf users exposed to the original vulnerabilities. |
| Kommander in KDE 3.2 through KDE 3.4.0 executes data files without confirmation from the user, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. |
| KDE klock allows local users to kill arbitrary processes by specifying an arbitrary PID in the .kss.pid file. |
| KDE kppp allows local users to create a directory in an arbitrary location via the HOME environmental variable. |
| Buffer overflow in kscreensaver in KDE klock allows local users to gain root privileges via a long HOME environmental variable. |
| Buffer overflow in kppp in KDE allows local users to gain root access via a long -c (account_name) command line argument. |
| Buffer overflow in kppp in KDE allows local users to gain root access via a long PATH environmental variable. |
| Vulnerability in KDE konsole allows local users to hijack or observe sessions of other users by accessing certain devices. |
| Screen savers in KDE beta 3 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the .kss.pid file. |
| KMail in KDE 1.0 provides a PGP passphrase as a command line argument to other programs, which could allow local users to obtain the passphrase and compromise the PGP keys of other users by viewing the arguments via programs that list process information, such as ps. |
| Xpdf, as used in products such as gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via streams that end prematurely, as demonstrated using the (1) CCITTFaxDecode and (2) DCTDecode streams, aka "Infinite CPU spins." |
| In KDE Connect before 1.33.0 on Android, a packet can be crafted that causes two paired devices to unpair. Specifically, it is an invalid discovery packet sent over broadcast UDP. |
| In the KDE Connect information-exchange protocol before 2025-04-18, a packet can be crafted to temporarily change the displayed information about a device, because broadcast UDP is used. This affects KDE Connect before 1.33.0 on Android, KDE Connect before 25.04 on desktop, KDE Connect before 0.5 on iOS, Valent before 1.0.0.alpha.47, and GSConnect before 59. |
| An Improper Neutralization of Argument Delimiters in a Command ('Argument Injection') vulnerability allows local users ton perform arbitrary unmounts via smb4k mount helper |
| The KDE Connect protocol 8 before 2025-11-28 does not correlate device IDs across two packets. This affects KDE Connect before 25.12 on desktop, KDE Connect before 0.5.4 on iOS, KDE Connect before 1.34.4 on Android, GSConnect before 68, and Valent before 1.0.0.alpha.49. |
