Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 201311-14 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in QtCore and QtGui, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code, Denial of Service, or man-in-the-middle attacks. Versions less than 4.8.4-r2 are affected.
48adb5e90b61766cc2b61bf6a9f67ae045e98144649b3e6a9b77199924122d98Ubuntu Security Notice 1504-1 - It was discovered that Qt did not properly handle wildcard domain names or IP addresses in the Common Name field of X.509 certificates. An attacker could exploit this to perform a man in the middle attack to view sensitive information or alter encrypted communications. This issue only affected Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. A heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in the HarfBuzz module. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted font file in a Qt application, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. Various other issues were also addressed.

It provides developers and system administrators with the ability to examine and analyze multi-host, multi-process, and multithreaded systems while they are running. frysk is released as a Technology Preview for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. A buffer overflow flaw was found in HarfBuzz, an OpenType text shaping engine used in the embedded Pango library. If a frysk application were used to debug or trace a process that uses HarfBuzz while it loaded a specially-crafted font file, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.

A buffer overflow flaw was found in HarfBuzz, an OpenType text shaping engine used in Pango. If a user loaded a specially-crafted font file with an application that uses Pango, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. Users of pango are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to resolve this issue. After installing this update, you must restart your system or restart the X server for the update to take effect.

a1c24e64298830d8a2e338ef21d6a3d7fbe44b1bc20b76eb7693299bfb9d4913Red Hat Security Advisory 2011-1324-01 - Qt 4 is a software toolkit that simplifies the task of writing and maintaining GUI applications for the X Window System. HarfBuzz is an OpenType text shaping engine. A flaw in the way Qt 4 expanded certain UTF-8 characters could be used to prevent a Qt 4 based application from properly sanitizing user input. Depending on the application, this could allow an attacker to perform directory traversal, or for web applications, a cross-site scripting attack. A buffer overflow flaw was found in the harfbuzz module in Qt 4. If a user loaded a specially-crafted font file with an application linked against Qt 4, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.

HarfBuzz is an OpenType text shaping engine. A buffer overflow flaw was found in the harfbuzz module in Qt. If a user loaded a specially-crafted font file with an application linked against Qt, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way Qt handled certain gray-scale image files. If a user loaded a specially-crafted gray-scale image file with an application linked against Qt, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
