Check for the version of the qt3 packages Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory SUSE-SA:2004:027 (qt3/qt3-non-mt/qt3-32bit/qt3-static). The QT-library is an environment for GUI-programming and is used in various well-known projects, like KDE. There is a heap overflow in the BMP image format parser. An attacker, exploiting this flaw, would need to be able to coerce a local user or program to process a specially crafted image file. Upon successful exploitation, the attacker would be able to execute arbitrary code. In addition, there are 2 distinct flaws within the XPM parser which, when exploited, lead to a Denial of Service (DoS).
