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 mxit or mxit/imagestrips pathname . 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 . 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 via a crafted packet . 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 by leveraging access to the local network . This update provides pidgin 2.10.7, which is not vulnerable to these issues.
