Description

Off-by-one error in the QUtf8Decoder::toUnicode function in Trolltech Qt 3 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted Unicode string that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. NOTE: Qt 4 has the same error in the QUtf8Codec::convertToUnicode function, but it is not exploitable.

Solution(s)

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
