|
|
|
|
<p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted XML
|
|
|
|
|
file using an application linked against QtCore, possibly resulting in
|
|
|
|
|
Denial of Service.

</workaround>
|
|
|
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>All QtCore users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<code>
|
|
|
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
|
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-qt/qtcore-4.8.5-r1"
|
|
