Some corrupt PCX files crash gwenview badly and it could maybe be exploitable. More information is available in the KDE bugzilla: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102328
This issue may also affect RHEL2.1 and RHEL3. I'm not entirely sure of the overall impact of this issue yet.
i have taken a look here, it's only affected in KDE 3.2 up to including KDE 3.4. it's only affected in RHEL4 in FC3
it's fixed in kdelibs-3.3.1-3.8
