Hi,

The existing pre-built versions of 5.15 and 6.2 will have this problem yes, but 
I don’t know what the plan would be for releasing an update one in these cases 
though. That would be down to the release team to comment on.

Kind regards,
Andy

Does this mean that the currently available opensource binary downloads 
(through the official installer) of Qt 5.15(.2) and 6.2 are affected by 
the CVE and will not get fixed?

Should they just be removed from the online installers?

Thanks,
