The kdelibs packages provide libraries for the K Desktop Environment (KDE).
A buffer overflow flaw was found in the kdelibs string to floating point
conversion routines. A web page containing malicious JavaScript could crash
Konqueror or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the
user running Konqueror. (CVE-2009-0689)
Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported
patch to correct this issue. The desktop must be restarted (log out, then
log back in) for this update to take effect.
