kdelibs last release was 4.14.35 in August 2017.

kdelibs is no longer maintained. 

Qt 4 last release was 4.8.7 in May 2015.

Qt 4 is no longer maintained. 

Our suggestion is to stop using any qt4/kdelibs based software and move to the 
future if you're concerned about security and/or want to use maintained 
software.

  Albert

[SECURITY] CVE-2019-7443 (kauth) in kdelibs

2019-03-19 Thread Hugo Lefeuvre
Hi,

I'm Hugo Lefeuvre, from the Debian LTS team. I am currently working on
CVE-2019-7443 which appears to affect not only kauth but also kdelibs
since it ships a very similar kdecore/auth/backends/dbus/DBusHelperProxy.cpp
file[0].

As far as I am aware the fix for CVE-2019-7443 was not applied to
kdelibs. Is there a specific reason for that? Do you plan addressing this
potential vulnerability in kdelibs as well?

CC-ing publicly-archived debian-...@lists.debian.org

Hugo Lefeuvre

Re: Symmy in kde-review

2019-03-19 Thread Jonathan Riddell
I'm bumping this thread again to get a decision on symmy passing
kdereview.  The technical problems have been fixed.  The question of
whether it would be better to add to kgpg is open but as it has not
been added to kgpg and nobody is planning to do so it's a moot point.
So give symmy a final review if you wish else I'll put it into
extragear.

If it's truly 1.7 its based off a partial kf5 port that was never released.
Don't remember off hand who created. 1.7.90 would be an older version of my
code not officially released.

I uploaded an untagged 1.7.90 version to Debian so it could still make it
in the next Debian release buster (which is supposed to get rid of QT4).

KDiff3 Debian packaging is managed all old-fashioned on my local PC
(for over 15 years now...). :)
I didn't yet engage in team packaging...

Hello,

do you have a link with some more information? Sounds neat.
