| <impact type="normal"> |
| <p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted TIFF |
| image with an application linked against QtGui, possibly resulting in |
| execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a |
| Denial of Service condition. |
| </p> |
| </impact> |
| <workaround> |
| <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p> |
| </workaround> |
| <resolution> |
| <p>All QtGui users should upgrade to the latest version:</p> |
| |
| <code> |
| # emerge --sync |
| # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=x11-libs/qt-gui-4.7.4-r1" |
| </code> |

| <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools |
| such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying some of these packages. |
