Summary

Vulnerability in Konqueror 3.x up to version 3.2.2-6 allows remote attackers to spoof arbitrary web sites by injecting content from one window into a target window or tab whose name is known but resides in a different domain, as demonstrated using a pop-up window on a trusted web site, aka the 'window injection' vulnerability.

Risk Assessment

The organization is exposed to phishing attacks and credential theft, as users may be tricked into believing they are interacting with content from a trusted site.

Recommendation
