Fedora Legacy Update Advisory
Synopsis: Updated qt packages fixes security issues
Advisory ID: FLSA:152763
Issue date: 2005-05-12
Product: Red Hat Linux
Keywords: Bugfix
CVE Names: CAN-2004-0691 CAN-2004-0692 CAN-2004-0693
---------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:
Updated qt packages that fix security issues in several of the image
decoders are now available.
Qt is a software toolkit that simplifies the task of writing and
maintaining GUI (Graphical User Interface) applications for the X Window
System.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386
Red Hat Linux 9 - i386
3. Problem description:
During a security audit, Chris Evans discovered a heap overflow in the
BMP image decoder in Qt versions prior to 3.3.3. An attacker could
create a carefully crafted BMP file in such a way that it would cause an
application linked with Qt to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code
when the file was opened by a victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0691 to
this issue.
Additionally, various flaws were discovered in the GIF, XPM, and JPEG
decoders in Qt versions prior to 3.3.3. An attacker could create
carefully crafted image files in such a way that it could cause an
application linked against Qt to crash when the file was opened by a
victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
has assigned the names CAN-2004-0692 and CAN-2004-0693 to these issues.
Users of Qt should update to these updated packages which contain
backported patches and are not vulnerable to these issues.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filenames]
where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which
are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note
that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only*
contains the desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via yum and apt. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use yum issue:
yum update
or to use apt:
apt-get update; apt-get upgrade
This will start an interactive process that will result in the
appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. This assumes that you
have yum or apt-get configured for obtaining Fedora Legacy content.
Please visit http://www.fedoralegacy.org/docs for directions on how to
configure yum and apt-get.

These packages are GPG signed by Fedora Legacy for security. Our key is
available from http://www.fedoralegacy.org/about/security.php
You can verify each package with the following command:
rpm --checksig -v <filename>
If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the sha1sum with the following command:
sha1sum <filename>
