The following security issues have been fixed :

  - Specially crafted font files could cause a single byte     heap based buffer overflow. (CVE-2011-3193)

  - Specially crafted grey scale images could cause a     heap-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2011-3194)

  - SSL servers could run into an endless loop     (CVE-2010-2621) The update also fixes the following     non-security bugs :

  - QFileDialog, to show system files (bnc#669604),

  - matching of SSL certificates mentioning IP addresses     (bnc#637293),

  - the font fallback handling (bnc#643848),

  - handling of transparent monochromatic pixmaps     (bnc#610578),

  - a crash of QtWebKit with flash player (bnc#613818)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201206-02 (QtGui: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

    An error in qtiffhandler.cpp could cause a buffer overflow.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted TIFF       image with an application linked against QtGui, possibly resulting in       execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a       Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Specially crafted font files could cause a single byte heap based buffer overflow (CVE-2011-3193).

Specially crafted grey scale images could cause a heap based buffer overflow (CVE-2011-3194).

The update also fixes the following non-security bugs :

  - fix QFileDialog not showing system files (bnc#669604)

  - fix font fallback handling (bnc#643848)

  - add support for postgresql 8.3 and 9 (bnc#668210)

  - Path added: bnc#592962 - Set application icon.

It was discovered that Qt did not properly handle wildcard domain names or IP addresses in the Common Name field of X.509 certificates.
An attacker could exploit this to perform a man in the middle attack to view sensitive information or alter encrypted communications. This issue only affected Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. (CVE-2010-5076)

A heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in the HarfBuzz module. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted font file in a Qt application, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2011-3193)

It was discovered that Qt did not properly handle greyscale TIFF images. If a Qt application could be made to process a crafted TIFF file, an attacker could cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-3194).

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2011:1328 advisory.

    Qt is a software toolkit that simplifies the task of writing and     maintaining GUI (Graphical User Interface) applications for the X Window     System. HarfBuzz is an OpenType text shaping engine.

    A buffer overflow flaw was found in the harfbuzz module in Qt. If a user     loaded a specially-crafted font file with an application linked against Qt,     it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary     code with the privileges of the user running the application.
    (CVE-2011-3193)

    A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way Qt handled certain gray-scale     image files. If a user loaded a specially-crafted gray-scale image file     with an application linked against Qt, it could cause the application to     crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user     running the application. (CVE-2011-3194)

    Users of Qt should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain     backported patches to correct these issues. All running applications linked     against Qt libraries must be restarted for this update to take effect.

CVE-2011-3193

Check for buffer overflow in Lookup_MarkMarkPos that may cause crash in this function with certain fonts.

CVE-2011-3194

Fix tiff reader to handle TIFFTAG_SAMPLESPERPIXEL for grayscale images. The reader uses QImage::Format_Indexed8, but since the samples per pixel value this should be (non-existent) QImage::Format_Indexed16, causing memory corruption. The fix falls back to the 'normal' way of reading tiff images.
