+ <blockquote cite="http://lists.freedesktop.org/pipermail/uim/2005-February/000996.html">
+ <p>Takumi ASAKI discovered that uim always trusts environment variables.
+ But this is not correct behavior, sometimes environment variables
+ shouldn't be trusted. This bug causes privilege escalation when libuim
+ is linked against setuid/setgid application. Since GTK+ prohibits
+ setuid/setgid applications, the bug appears only in 'immodule for Qt'
+ enabled Qt. (Normal Qt is also safe.)</p>
