    Package        : Konquerer
    Vulnerability  : cross site scripting
    Problem-Type   : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    Upstream URL   : http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20020908-2.txt
    
    A cross site scripting problem has been discovered in Konquerer, a
    famous browser for KDE and other programs using KHTML.  The KDE team
    reports that Konqueror's cross site scripting protection fails to
    initialize the domains on sub-(i)frames correctly.  As a result,
    Javascript is able to access any foreign subframe which is defined in
    the HTML source.  Users of Konqueror and other KDE software that uses
    the KHTML rendering engine may become victim of a cookie stealing and
    other cross site scripting attacks.
    
    This problem has been fixed in version 2.2.2-13.woody.3 for the
    current stable distribution (woody) and in version 2.2.2-14 for the
    unstable distribution (sid).  The old stable distribution (potato) is
    not affected since it didn't ship KDE.
    
    We recommend that you upgrade your kdelibs package and restart
    Konquerer.
    
    wget url
            will fetch the file for you
    dpkg -i file.deb
            will install the referenced file.
    
    If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
    sources.list as given below:
    
    apt-get update
            will update the internal database
    apt-get upgrade
            will install corrected packages
    
    You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
    footer to the proper configuration.
