Descriptions

The BMP decoder in QtGui in QT before 5.5 does not properly calculate the masks used to extract the color components, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero and crash) via a crafted BMP file.

El decodificador BMP en QtGui en QT anterior a 5.5 no calcula correctamente las mascaras utilizadas para extraer los componentes de color, lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (dividir por cero y caída) a través de un fichero BMP manipulado.

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.
