This should be sufficient for most uses of CBOR. An API to limit further or to relax the limit will be provided in 5.15. Meanwhile, if decoding more is required, QCborStreamReader can be used (note that each level of map and array allocates memory). **************************************************************************** * QtSQL * **************************************************************************** - sqlite: * Updated to v3.32.1 which includes fixes for CVE-2020-11655 and CVE-2020-11656 **************************************************************************** * QtNetwork * **************************************************************************** - [QTBUG-83450] OpenSSL: handle SSL_shutdown's errors properly **************************************************************************** * QtGui * **************************************************************************** - QIcon: * [QTBUG-74252] If you call QIcon::setFallbackThemeName(), do it before creating a QGuiApplication.
