Description |
37 |
=========== |
38 |
|
39 |
Multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities have been discovered in QtGui. |
40 |
It is possible for remote attackers to construct specially crafted BMP, |
41 |
ICO, or GIF images that lead to buffer overflows. After successfully |
42 |
overflowing the buffer the remote attacker can then cause a Denial of |
43 |
Service or execute arbitrary code. |

|
45 |
Impact |
46 |
====== |
47 |
|
48 |
A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code or cause Denial |
49 |
of Service. |
