Class: PATCH | Family: unix |
Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in pidgin: The pidgin_conv_chat_rename_user function in gtkconv.c in Pidgin before 2.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by changing a nickname while in an XMPP chat room . The msn_oim_report_to_user function in oim.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.10.2 allows remote servers to cause a denial of service via an OIM message that lacks UTF-8 encoding . This update provides pidgin 2.10.2, which is not vulnerable to these issues.
