Id Description
9263 Gaim RTF Message Overflow

A remote overflow exists in Gaim. Gaim fails to preform bounds checking when receiving RichTextFormat messages resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted RTF message, an attacker could execute arbitrary commands resulting in a loss of integrity.
9262 Gaim Local Hostname Resolution Overflow

A remote overflow exists in Gaim. Gaim fails to check the length of the destination buffer, when receiveing a reply to a DNS lookup of the local host name resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker can compromise the system resulting in a loss of integrity.
9261 Gaim URL Decode Overflow

A remote overflow exists in Gaim. Gaim fails to check that a received URL is shorter than 2048 bytes resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker can compromise the system resulting in a loss of integrity.
