Bug#319016: Information leak through insufficient permissions on backup files in kate (CAN-2005-1920)

[Moritz Muehlenhoff <jmm@inutil.org>]

Package: kate
Severity: important
Tags: security

Kate creates backup files with default permissions, which may cause
sensitive information to be visible to other users on the system.
Please see http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20050718-1.txt
for full details.

stable, testing and sid are affected, oldstable is not.
It's been fixed in the 3.4.1 packages in experimental.

Cheers,
         Moritz
