Well, maybe if you have implemented a server in Qt which is accessible to open internet, such as PHP in your example. 99% of the Qt applications I'm aware of are desktop or "embedded". I'm working with Qt since 20 years now and had never a security issue or a known vulnerability relevant to my projects.
- heeen2 7y agoThere is also qtwebkit, the wrappers around ssl which could have issues validating certificates, qml could have issues with untrusted content etc.
- Rochus 7y agoWebKit is a web client library. I'm not even sure why a Qt developer would use it. That's among the first things I delete before compiling the Qt 4.x framework. OpenSSL is yet another third party library which can easily be replaced if need be without affecting Qt. And of course each application is a security risk, but definitely a smaller one than the user in front of the screen.
