| * Security fix (CVE-2006-3334): Buffer overflow allows context-dependent |
| attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary |
| code via unspecified vectors related to chunk error processing. |
| |
| * Security fix (CVE-2006-5793): The sPLT chunk handling code |
| uses a sizeof operator on the wrong data type, which allows |
| context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) |
| via malformed sPLT chunks that trigger an out-of-bounds read. |
| |
| * Security fix: Avoid profile larger than iCCP chunk. |
| One might crash a decoder by putting a larger profile inside the |
| iCCP profile than is actually expected. |
| |
| * Security fix: NULL pointer dereference. |
| |
| * Disabled MMX assembler code for Intel-Mac platforms to work |
| around a compiler bug. |
| |
| * Disabled MMX assembler code for x86_64 platforms. |
| |
| - freetype |
| |
| * Security fix (CVE-2006-0747): Integer underflow allows remote |
| attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a font file |
| with an odd number of blue values, which causes the underflow |
| when decrementing by 2 in a context that assumes an even number |
| of values. |
| |
| * Security fix (CVE-2006-1861): Multiple integer overflows allow |
| remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly |
| execute arbitrary code. |
| |
| * Security fix (CVE-2006-2661): A null dereference flaw allows |
| remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a |
| specially crafted font file. |
| |
| * Fixed memory leak. |

| - QApplication |
| argc() no longer returns 1 if 0 was passed as argc to the constructor. |
| |
| - QDateTime |
| Made QDateTime::fromString(QString(), Qt::TextDate) work with locales |
| that have two-digit day names (e.g. Di 16. Jan). |
| |
| - QDns |
| Stability fixes for networks with missing DNS settings. |
| |
| - QFileDialog |
| Ensured that files are not accidentally replaced or lost during drag |
| and drop operations. |
| |
| - QFtp |
| Fixed a crash when uploading data from a closed QIODevice. |
| Fixed a potential crash when a FTP session gets deleted in a slot. |
| |
| - QGLWidget |
| renderText() no longer tries to convert the text passed in to |
| a local 8 bit encoding (via local8Bit()). latin1() is used instead. |
| |
| - QGridLayout |
| Fixed incorrect minimum size with rich text labels in grid layouts. |
| |
| - QHttp |
| Fixed an overflow that could occur when chunked downloading caused |
| erroneous allocations. |
| |
| - QListBox |
| Fixed a potential crash that could occur if a list box is deleted in |
| a slot connected to the returnPressed() signal. |
| |
| - QListView |
| Set internal startDragItem pointer to 0 in clear(). This can prevent |
| crashes during drag and drop operations. |
| Fixed a documentation error in setSelectable. |
| Fixed regression in activation of leaf-nodes of type QCheckBoxController. |
| |
| - QTable |
| Fixed a memory leak when F2 is pressed in an empty table. |
| Ensured that the focus rectangle is painted correctly. |
| Ensured that editors in cells spanning multiple rows or columns are |
| closed correctly. |
| |
| - QTextEdit |
| setDocument() no longer crashes when 0 is passed as an argument. |
| Fixed rendering of HTML tables with a fixed pixel width. |
| Fixed a potential crash when using undo/redo functionality. |
| Fixed a regression when searching for space using QTextEdit::find(). |
| |
| - SQL plugins |
| Ensured that mysql_server_end() is only called once in the MySQL plugin. |
| Fixed fetching of strings larger than 255 characters from a |
| Sybase server through ODBC. |
| Ensured that milliseconds are not stripped from ODBC time values. |
| |
| - QWidget |
| Fixed an issue where adjustSize() would incorrectly take the size of |
| top-level widgets into account. |
| |
| |
| Platform-Specific Issues |
| ------------------------ |
| |
| Windows: |
| |
| - QAxServer |
| Fixed a regression in how the server registers type libraries. |
| |
| - Visual Studio 2005 |
| Fixed compilation issue with the x64 compiler. |
| Fixed the behavior of qmake when executed with "qmake -tp vc". |
| |
| - QFont |
| Fixed crash that would occur when creating a font from an invalid string. |
| Fixed metric problems. |
| |
| - Fixed possible infinite loop when drawing text. |
| |
| - Fixed an issue where flags specified by QMAKE_LFLAGS_RELEASE would not be |
| included in generated Visual Studio project files. |
| |
| - Fixed issue that caused wizards to use the wrong class in the QMsDev plugin |
| |
| - Fixed an unexpected remote close in QSocket for Windows servers with a high |
| load. |

| resolution. |

| Mac OS X: |
| |
| - Made the endian preprocessor define dependent on the architecture. This means |
| that it is possible to build a universal Qt library on one machine. However, |
| qmake_image_collection.cpp is still dependent upon the machine it was |
| generated on. |
| |
| - QComboBox |
| Fixed an issue where the popup would stay open after the window had |
| been minimized. |
| |
| - QFont |
| Fixed support for QFont::setStretch(). |

| widget. |

| Motif Extension. |

| on Solaris. |

| when running a Qt application on a multi-screen display where the default |
| screen uses a TrueColor visual and the secondary screen a PseudoColor visual. |
| |
