Bug#278002: konqueror: shows dialog box from other tab (possible security implications)



Package: konqueror
Version: 4:3.3.0a-1
Severity: minor
Tags: security

Just confirming that the issue explained here:
http://secunia.com/secunia_research/2004-10/advisory/

exists in Debian package.  Please remove the security tag
if you think this is not really relevant security-wise.

You can check it for yourself at
http://secunia.com/multiple_browsers_dialog_box_spoofing_test/

Be quick with opening the other window in the tab, or the dialog might
appear before the new tab opens.  If this happens, reload the test page
and then open the link in new tab, in less than 8 seconds.

The advisory said that upstream fixed this in 3.3.1.

Regards,
Zoran
