KDM in KDE 3.1.3 and earlier uses a weak session cookie generation algorithm that does not provide 128 bits of entropy, which allows attackers to guess session cookies via brute force methods and gain access to the user session.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2003-0692 affects KDM in KDE 3.1.3 and earlier. It generated session cookies with less entropy than expected, making them easier to guess. If an attacker guessed a valid cookie, they could gain access to a user session. This mainly matters for legacy systems still running old KDE/KDM packages. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Linux or Unix systems running KDE KDM 3.1.3 or earlier, including old vendor distributions referenced by KDE, Debian, Red Hat, Mandrake, Conectiva, and SUSE advisories. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless old KDE/KDM systems remain in production. Business urgency rises if affected hosts support shared desktops, sensitive user sessions, or remote graphical access. Mitigation focus: Identify systems still running KDE KDM 3.1.3 or earlier.; Apply the relevant KDE or Linux distribution security update.; Retire or replace unsupported legacy KDE/KDM installations..
