Multiple buffer overflows in gui/image/qbmphandler.cpp in the QtBase module in Qt before 4.8.7 and 5.x before 5.4.2 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted BMP image.

Security readout for executives and security teams

A specially crafted BMP image could crash software using vulnerable Qt image handling, and the CVE description says code execution may be possible. This matters for products that open, preview, import, or thumbnail untrusted BMP files through Qt. Exposure is most likely in desktop, embedded, or server-side applications built with affected Qt/QtBase versions that process BMP images from users, email, fileshares, or external content feeds. Prioritize remediation where Qt-based software handles images from untrusted users or external sources. The absence of KEV evidence lowers immediate emergency pressure, but possible code execution and remote file-triggered exposure justify timely patching. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Qt 4 deployments to 4.8.7 or later.; Upgrade Qt 5 deployments to 5.4.2 or later.; Apply Fedora, Ubuntu, Gentoo, or other vendor security packages where applicable..
