A long URL padded with spaces could be used to display a false URL in
Konqueror's addressbar, and KDM when used with no-password login could
be tricked into logging a different user in without a password. This
is not the way KDM is configured in Slackware by default, somewhat
mitigating the impact of this issue.

Here are the details from the Slackware 12.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/kdebase-3.5.7-i486-3_slack12.0.tgz:
 Patched Konqueror to prevent 'spoofing' the URL
 (i.e. displaying a URL other than the one associated with the page displayed)
 For more information, see:
 [links moved to references]
 Patched KDM issue: 'KDM can be tricked into performing a password-less
 login even for accounts with a password set under certain circumstances,
 namely autologin to be configured and 'shutdown with password' enabled.'
 For more information, see:
 [links moved to references]
 (* Security fix *)
patches/packages/kdelibs-3.5.7-i486-3_slack12.0.tgz:
 Patched Konqueror's supporting libraries to prevent addressbar spoofing.
 For more information, see:

 (* Security fix *)
