"... Several format string flaws were found in Qt error message handling. If an
application linked against Qt created an error message from user supplied
data in a certain way, it could lead to a denial of service or possibly
allow the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2007-3388) ..."

To quote Dirk Müller from the KDE packager list:

In case you've missed it: I've added a patch for Qt4 as well to qt-copy. While 
TT claims that none of those are exploitable, I disagree and believe that 
some of them are indeed possible to exploit (though only in uninteresting 
ways as far as I investigated).


so qt-3.3.8-r3 and qt-4.3.0-r1 are in cvs now. Please go for it arch teams.

I thought there was already an open bug on this...

Anyway, arch teams note that the patch only modifies some debugging output
statments via qWarning calls, so this should have absolutely no impact on
stability whatsoever.

There is - once again restricted!? The issue was on the packager list on monday
and in the public for at least 30 hours, so I thought you did not have the time
and went ahead. :)

you're right, I didn't, so it's no problem.  :)

I just seem to remember it being a dupe.
