+ <title>Qt: Image loader overflows</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ There are several bugs in Qt's image-handling code which could lead to
+ crashes or arbitrary code execution.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Qt is a cross-platform GUI toolkit used by KDE.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ There are several unspecified bugs in the QImage class which may cause
+ crashes or allow execution of arbitrary code as the user running the Qt
+ application. These bugs affect the PNG, XPM, BMP, GIF and JPEG image
+ types.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker may exploit these bugs by causing a user to open a
+ carefully-constructed image file in any one of these formats. This may
+ be accomplished through e-mail attachments (if the user uses KMail), or
+ by simply placing a malformed image on a website and then convicing the
+ user to load the site in a Qt-based browser (such as Konqueror).
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time. All users are encouraged to
+ upgrade to the latest available version of Qt.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Qt users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge sync
+
+ # emerge -pv "&gt;=x11-libs/qt-3.3.3"
+ # emerge "&gt;=x11-libs/qt-3.3.3"</code>
