CVE-2008-5712
The HTML parser in KDE Konqueror 3.5.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via (1) a long COLOR attribute in an HR element; or a long (a) BGCOLOR or (b) BORDERCOLOR attribute in a (2) TABLE, (3) TD, or (4) TR element.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.80%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
