Wasn't this already assigned CVE-2010-2621?

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-2621

The fix seems to be
http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qt/commit/f7fe575bc5f628533aeeca3eb564af89a1a1426b

According to the Mumble author this fix causes a regression with peer
certificate validation when used with openssl >= 0.9.8n though:
