NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream qt-postgresql package and not the qt-postgresql package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The QSslSocketBackendPrivate::transmit function in src_network_ssl_qsslsocket_openssl.cpp in Qt 4.6.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a malformed request.
