Title:	DSA-2038-3 pidgin -- several
Description:	The packages for Pidgin released as DSA 2038-2 had a regression, as they unintentionally disabled the Silc, Simple, and Yahoo instant messaging protocols. This update restores that functionality. For reference the original advisory text below. Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in Pidgin, a multi-protocol instant messaging client. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2010-0420 Crafted nicknames in the XMPP protocol can crash Pidgin remotely. CVE-2010-0423 Remote contacts may send too many custom smilies, crashing Pidgin. Since a few months, Microsoft’s servers for MSN have changed the protocol, making Pidgin non-functional for use with MSN. It is not feasible to port these changes to the version of Pidgin in Debian Lenny. This update formalises that situation by disabling the protocol in the client. Users of the MSN protocol are advised to use the version of Pidgin in the repositories of www.backports.org. For the stable distribution, these problems have been fixed in version 2.4.3-4lenny8. For the unstable distribution, these problems have been fixed in version 2.6.6-1. We recommend that you upgrade your pidgin package.
