Description
A vulnerability was found in Qt, where a flaw occurs when the SQL ODBC driver plugin is used and the size of SQLTCHAR is 4, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted string, causing a denial of service.
Statement
This vulnerability is rated as moderate because it allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service by exploiting the SQL ODBC driver pluginend, by sending a specially crafted string could crash the application, affecting availability but not compromising system security or integrity.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Availability,Other
Technical Impact: DoS: Resource Consumption (Other); Varies by Context
Most unreleased resource issues result in general software reliability problems, but if an attacker can intentionally trigger a resource leak, the attacker might be able to launch a denial of service attack by depleting the resource pool.
Confidentiality
Technical Impact: Read Application Data
When a resource containing sensitive information is not correctly shutdown, it may expose the sensitive data in a subsequent allocation.
