The remote host is missing an update to kdelibs
announced via advisory DSA 804-2.

Lennert Buytenhek discoverd that that patch to cure this information
leak was only included but not applied, hence, this update. For
completeness we’re copying the original advisory text:

KDE developers have reported a vulnerability in the backup file
handling of Kate and Kwrite. The backup files are created with
default permissions, even if the original file had more strict
permissions set. This could disclose information unintendedly.
