The host is installed with Pidgin before 2.5.6 and is prone to denial of service vulnerability. The flaw is present in the PurpleCircBuffer implementation in Pidgin, which fails to handle vectors involving the (1) XMPP or (2) Sametime protocol. Successful exploitation could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash).
