qt6-base: CVE-2026-16762

Severity: Medium
Published: Oct 23, 2026, 9:17:06 AM UTC
Source: [NVD] · [CVE record]
EPSS: 0.52% · Oct 25, 2026

An attacker able to supply a crafted XML document to an application using QXmlStreamReader can cause disproportionate CPU consumption during parsing, making the application unresponsive (denial of service). Exploitation requires only that the application parse attacker-influenced XML; no authentication, privileges, or user interaction beyond ingesting the input are needed. There is no loss of confidentiality or integrity — no data disclosure, data modification, or code execution — and the impact is contained to the affected process.
