Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Qt (affected versions not specified)
Description Uncontrolled recursion in the readElementText() function of QXmlStreamReader allows attackers to cause a denial of service. This occurs when the application processes a crafted XML document, leading to a crash via stack exhaustion, which happens when the program uses all available stack memory due to excessive recursive function calls.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
