Hi,

the following vulnerability was published for kde-cli-tools.

CVE-2016-7787[0]:
kdesu: Displayed command truncated by unicode string terminator

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.

For further information see:

[0] https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-7787
[1] https://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20160930-1.txt

Please adjust the affected versions in the BTS as needed. I'm not sure
if kde-runtime is as well affected (it looks source wise, since the
same file can be patched).

Regards,
Salvatore
