CVE-2007-0242 – QT UTF8 improper character expansion

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2007-0242

The UTF-8 decoder in codecs/qutfcodec.cpp in Qt 3.3.8 and 4.2.3 does not reject long UTF-8 sequences as required by the standard, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) and directory traversal attacks via long sequences that decode to dangerous metacharacters. El decodificador de UTF-8 en el codecs/qutfcodec.cpp del Qt 3.3.8 y 4.2.3 no rechaza secuencias largas de UTF-8 como lo solicitado por el estándar, lo que permite a atacantes remotos llevar a cabo ataques de secuencias de comandos en sitios cruzados (XSS) y de escalado de directorios mediante secuencias largas que decodifican metacaracteres peligrosos. • ftp://patches.sgi.com/support/free/security/advisories/20070901-01-P.asc http://fedoranews.org/updates/FEDORA-2007-703.shtml http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-1324.html http://secunia.com/advisories/24699 http://secunia.com/advisories/24705 http://secunia.com/advisories/24726 http://secunia.com/advisories/24727 http://secunia.com/advisories/24759 http://secunia.com/advisories/24797 http://secunia.com/advisories/24847 http://secunia.com/advisories/24889 http://secuni •
