    Previous versions of the qt-x11-free package are vulnerable to a Denial     of Service attack in which a maliciously crafted Unicode string may     cause a heap-based buffer overflow in applications that use the Qt     libraries. It is not believed that this vulnerability can be exploited     to execute malicious code.
