Hi everyone, Today I noticed in Mandrake security update that UIM has a security bug (CAN-2005-0503), and a bug is already filed in Debian BTS (#296632).
However after reading the detail about this bug (http://lists.freedesktop.org/pipermail/uim/2005-February/000996.html), I believe this bug won't affect Debian (at least not likely before sarge is released). The reason is that this bug only affects ``Qt immodule'', and this is a Qt 4 feature. The official Qt 3 doesn't have such a feature, but there is a patch for Qt 3 avaiable, and I believe Mandrake has this patch included. However, from what I hear, the Qt 3 in Debian doesn't have this patch (there is a wishlist bug filed, but I can't find it at the moment). So it's my understanding that Debian is not affected. There are more informed people on [EMAIL PROTECTED], so they will correct me if I am wrong.
