+ <title>Qt: Buffer overflow in the included zlib library</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Qt is vulnerable to a buffer overflow which could potentially lead to the
+ execution of arbitrary code.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Qt is a cross-platform GUI toolkit used by KDE.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Qt links to a bundled vulnerable version of zlib when emerged with the
+ zlib USE-flag disabled. This may lead to a buffer overflow.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ By creating a specially crafted compressed data stream, attackers can
+ overwrite data structures for applications that use Qt, resulting in a
+ Denial of Service or potentially arbitrary code execution.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ Emerge Qt with the zlib USE-flag enabled.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Qt users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=x11-libs/qt-3.3.4-r8"</code>
