CVE-2007-1384, CVE-2007-1385
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 6.10
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
ktorrent 1.2-0ubuntu5.1
Ubuntu 6.10:

After a standard system upgrade you need to restart KTorrent to effect
the necessary changes.
Details follow:
Bryan Burns of Juniper Networks discovered that KTorrent did not
correctly validate the destination file paths nor the HAVE statements
sent by torrent peers. A malicious remote peer could send specially
crafted messages to overwrite files or execute arbitrary code with user
privileges.
