Description David Walser 2017-03-06 02:15:04 CET 
KDE has issued an advisory on February 27:
https://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20170227-1.txt

The issue will be fixed in KDE Applications 16.12.3, but Mageia 5 is also affected.
Comment 1 David Walser 2017-12-27 04:52:14 CET 
It looks like KTNEFMain::extractTo() in kdepim-4.14.10/ktnef/ktnefmain.cpp *might* be affected, but the code is quite different.  We won't be able to backport a fix for this for Mageia 5.

Resolution: (none) => OLD
