  <description>
    <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in QtCore and QtGui.
      Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file
      with an application linked against QtCore or QtGui, possibly resulting in
      execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a
      Denial of Service condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker might employ
      a specially crafted certificate to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks on
      SSL connections.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>All QtCore users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
    
    <code>
      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-qt/qtcore-4.8.4-r2"
    </code>
    
    <p>All QtGui users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
    
    <code>
      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-qt/qtgui-4.8.4-r1"
    </code>
    
    <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
      such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying some of these packages.
