CVE-2004-0411: Kde Konqueror

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 7.8% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The URI handlers in Konqueror for KDE 3.2.2 and earlier do not properly filter "-" characters that begin a hostname in a (1) telnet, (2) rlogin, (3) ssh, or (4) mailto URI, which allows remote attackers to manipulate the options that are passed to the associated programs, possibly to read arbitrary files or execute arbitrary code.

Affected products

• Kde Konqueror: up to and including 3.2.2
