Malicious KDE theme can wipe out all your data

Or is it just buggy?

A ton of extensions are executing scripts, but this is generally behind a warning.

This REALLY has to change guys, and for that the getnewstuff backend must become better.

For example Dolphin extensions are still downloaded to some random download location that is not actually used.

And the packaging of addons is extremely random too.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
