Package: kdesktop
Version: 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-6
Severity: grave
Tags: security
X-Debbugs-CC: secure-testing-t...@lists.alioth.debian.org
It is possible to unlock kdesktop_lock on systems with configured scim without
entering a password. This makes it possible to access data of other users or
access random locked PCs (best place to start such an attack would be in some
asian countries).
The system was configure as described in
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2704098 but with japanese tables.
You must be sure that scim is enabled (for example by pressing ctrl+space and
entering some test data. Then start kdesktop_lock manually by calling
`kdesktop_lock --forcelock` and move your mouse/press some key to start the
password dialog. Just press cancel and move your mouse or press something on
you keyboard again. This should crash kdesktop_lock and enable access to the
desktop.
It was tested on different systems and it could reproduced on all.
This problem is also known by upstream but marked it as invalid because
kdesktop isn't maintained anymore (instead they thing everybody should use kde
4 stuff). http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149512
Only workaround seems to disable scim and stop to write in a foreign language
with complex characters... which is not acceptable.
