Quote from the KDE security advisory:

       "kpf is a file sharing utility that can be docked into the 
        KDE kicker bar. It uses a subset of the HTTP protocol internally
        and acts much similiar to a webserver.

        A feature added in KDE 3.0.1 accidently allowed retrieving any
        file, not limited to the configured shared directory, if it is
        readable by the user kpf runs under."
