- Qt SVG in Qt 5.0.0 through 5.15.2 and 6.0.0 through 6.2.1 has an out-of-bounds write in QtPrivate::QCommonArrayOps<QPainterPath::Element>::growAppend (called from QPainterPath::addPath and QPathClipper::intersect). (CVE-2021-45930)

- In Qt before 5.15.14, 6.0.x through 6.2.x before 6.2.9, and 6.3.x through 6.5.x before 6.5.1, QtSvg QSvgFont m_unitsPerEm initialization is mishandled. (CVE-2023-32573)

- An issue was discovered in Qt before 5.15.15, 6.x before 6.2.9, and 6.3.x through 6.5.x before 6.5.1. When a SVG file with an image inside it is rendered, a QTextLayout buffer overflow can be triggered.
(CVE-2023-32763)

- An issue was discovered in Qt before 5.15.15, 6.x before 6.2.9, and 6.3.x through 6.5.x before 6.5.2.

- In Qt before 5.15.15, 6.x before 6.2.9, and 6.3.x through 6.5.x before 6.5.2, there can be an application crash in QXmlStreamReader via a crafted XML string that triggers a situation in which a prefix is greater than a length. (CVE-2023-37369)

- An issue was discovered in Qt before 5.15.15, 6.x before 6.2.10, and 6.3.x through 6.5.x before 6.5.3.
