  <title>AMD64 x86 emulation Qt library: Integer overflow</title>
  <synopsis>
    The AMD64 x86 emulation Qt library makes use of an insecure version of the
    Qt library, potentially allowing for the remote execution of arbitrary
    code.

    <p>
    The AMD64 x86 emulation Qt library for AMD64 emulates the x86 (32-bit)
    Qt library on the AMD64 (64-bit) architecture.

  <description>
    <p>
    An integer overflow flaw has been found in the pixmap handling of Qt,
    making the AMD64 x86 emulation Qt library vulnerable as well.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    By enticing a user to open a specially crafted pixmap image in an
    application using the AMD64 x86 emulation Qt library, a remote attacker
    could cause an application crash or the remote execution of arbitrary
    code with the rights of the user running the application.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All AMD64 x86 emulation Qt library users should upgrade to the latest
    version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-qtlibs-10.0&quot;</code>
