Detail
| Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in pidgin: The MXit protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.10.7 might allow remote attackers to create or overwrite files via a crafted (1) mxit or (2) mxit/imagestrips pathname (CVE-2013-0271). Buffer overflow in http.c in the MXit protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.10.7 allows remote servers to execute arbitrary code via a long HTTP header (CVE-2013-0272). sametime.c in the Sametime protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.10.7 does not properly terminate long user IDs, which allows remote servers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet (CVE-2013-0273). upnp.c in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.10.7 does not properly terminate long strings in UPnP responses, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) by leveraging access to the local network (CVE-2013-0274). This update provides pidgin 2.10.7, which is not vulnerable to these issues. |
