Detail

A potential vulnerability was discovered in Qt4 version 4.3.0 through 4.3.2 which may cause a certificate verification in SSL connections not to be performed. As a result, code that uses QSslSocket could be tricked into thinking that the certificate was verified correctly when it actually failed in one or more criteria.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
