Mandriva- Advisories MDKSA-2006:186: Updated kdelibs packages fix KHTML vulnerability

Advisories MDKSA-2006:186: Updated kdelibs packages fix KHTML vulnerability
A vulnerability was discovered in the way that Qt handled pixmap images
and the KDE khtml library used Qt in such a way that untrusted
parameters could be passed to Qt, resulting in an integer overflow.
This flaw could be exploited by a remote attacker in a malicious
website that, when viewed by an individual using Konqueror, would cause
Konqueror to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user.

Updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
