Detail

Andreas Nolden discovered a bug in the UTF8 decoding routines in qt4-x11, a C++ GUI library framework, that could allow remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) and directory traversal attacks via long sequences that decode to dangerous metacharacters.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 4.2.1-2etch1

For the testing and unstable distribution (lenny and sid, respectively), this problem has been fixed in version 4.2.2-2

We recommend that you upgrade your qt4-x11 package.
