Discussion

KDE DCOPServer Local Denial of Service Vulnerability

KDE's Desktop Communication Protocol (DCOP) daemon is affected by a local denial-of-service vulnerability.

Reportedly, a user's DCOPServer can be locked up by causing the authentication process to stall.

All versions of KDE prior to 3.4 are affected by this issue.

This BID will be updated when more information is available.
