description
Qt applications using the QtSvg module are affected when they parse or render attacker-supplied SVG files. A crafted SVG with excessive element nesting can exhaust the stack and crash the application.
mitigation
Upgrade Qt to 6.8.9 or 6.11.2. Until upgraded, avoid processing untrusted SVG files.
fixed in 6.8.9, 6.11.2
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
