<p>
|
|
Dirk Mueller from the KDE development team discovered a boundary error
|
|
in file qutfcodec.cpp when processing Unicode strings.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</description>
|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could send a specially crafted Unicode string to a
|
|
vulnerable Qt application, possibly resulting in the remote execution
|
|
of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the
|
|
application. Note that the boundary error is present but reported to be
|
|
not exploitable in 4.x series.
|
|

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Qt 3.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=x11-libs/qt-3.3.8-r4"</code>
