| Description: | The kdegraphics packages contain applications for the K Desktop Environment including kpdf, a pdf file viewer.
A heap based buffer overflow bug was discovered in kpdf. An attacker could construct a carefully crafted PDF file that could cause kpdf to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code when opened. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the name CVE-2006-0301 to this issue.
Users of kpdf should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to resolve this issue.
