+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #411751 +++ Thiago José Macieira of Trolltech informed us of following problem affecting QT4 library: Qt 4 has a potential vulnerability in QSslSocket, which might cause a certificate verification in SSL connections not to be performed. As a consequence, code using QSslSocket might be mislead into thinking the certificate was verified correctly when it actually failed in one or more criteria. Versions affected: 4.3.0, 4.3.1 and 4.3.2 -- Additional comment from thoger on 2007-12-05 05:03 EST -- Created an attachment (id=277991) Upstream patch -- Additional comment from thoger on 2007-12-05 05:09 EST -- This issue did not affect versions of qt and qt4 packages as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4, or 5. Packages shipped are in version < 4.3 and do not contain vulnerable code. -- Additional comment from thoger on 2008-01-02 03:06 EST -- Public now: http://trolltech.com/company/newsroom/announcements/press.2007-12-21.2182567220 -- Additional comment from thoger on 2008-01-02 03:07 EST -- Fedora updates already built and available via testing repository: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F7/FEDORA-2007-4354 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F8/FEDORA-2007-4285
