Description

A vulnerability in Konqueror was discovered where it could inadvertently send authentication credentials to websites other than the intended site in clear text via the HTTP-referer header when authentication credentials are passed as part of a URL in the form http://user:password@host/.

The provided packages have a patch that corrects this issue.
