Description Josh Bressers 2006-10-14 04:46:11 UTC
An interger overflow flaw was found in the way qt handles certain pixmax
requests.  This flaw can lead to arbitrary data being written onto the heap,
possibly resulting in arbitrary code execution withing applications using qt
(such as knoqueror and kmail)
