FreeBSD : kdelibs -- insecure temporary file creation (29dd0065-81fa-11d9-a9e7-0001020eed82)

low Nessus Plugin ID 18881

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

Davide Madrisan reports :

The `dcopidlng' script in the KDE library package (kdelibs-3.3.2/dcop/dcopidlng/dcopidlng) creates temporary files in a unsecure manner.

Note: dcopidlng is only used at build time, so only users installing KDE are vulnerable, not users already running KDE.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
