I've not seen this yet; could a CVE be assigned to the following
issue?

It was reported that when KDE encounters an "internal server
error" and also prints out the URL that caused the error that it
would include the username and password (if supplied) to the
resource that caused the error.  For instance, it would show 
"https://user:password () remotehost com" or similar.  This is due to 
kioslave/http/http.cpp using m_request.url.url() rather than the 
sanitized m_request.url.prettyUrl().  This issue is fixed in git.

Note that this information is printed out to the local user
actively using the computer.
