Descriptions

The GIF decoder in QtGui in Qt before 5.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via invalid width and height values in a GIF image.

El decodificador GIF en QtGui en Qt anterior a 5.3 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (referencia a puntero nulo) a través de valores de ancho y alto inválidos en un imagen GIF.

Wolfgang Schenk discovered that Qt incorrectly handled certain malformed GIF images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted GIF image, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause Qt to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Fabian Vogt discovered that Qt incorrectly handled certain malformed BMP images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted BMP image, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause Qt to crash, resulting in a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
