Fedora 19 : qt3-3.3.8b-58.fc19 (2014-6896)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 74405

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

This update fixes a DoS in the Qt 3 GIF image handler (CVE-2014-0190, QTBUG-38367), through a patch backported from Qt 4.

It also fixes the path settings in qt.sh for ppc64le, and in qt.csh for both ppc64 and ppc64le.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected qt3 package.
