Conectiva alert CLA-2004:866 (qt3)
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- PACKAGE : qt3 SUMMARY : Fixes for image loader vulnerabilities DATE : 2004-09-22 10:55:00 ID : CLA-2004:866 RELEVANT RELEASES : 9, 10 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION QT[1] is a cross-platform GUI toolkit mostly used by KDE. Chris Evans found[2] a heap overflow vulnerability[3] in the QT library when handling 8-bit RLE encoded BMP files. An attacker could use this to compromise the account used to view the specially crafted image. Further investigations found similar vulnerabilities in XPM[4], GIF[5] and JPEG image handlers. SOLUTION It is recommended that all qt users upgrade their packages. IMPORTANT: all applications linked against libqt must be restarted after the upgrade in order to close the vulnerabilities.
