Synopsis ========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Gaim which could allow a remote attacker to crash the application.
Background ==========
Gaim is a full featured instant messaging client which handles a variety of instant messaging protocols.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 net-im/gaim < 1.1.4 >= 1.1.4
Description ===========
Specially crafted SNAC packets sent by other instant-messaging users can cause Gaim to loop endlessly (CAN-2005-0472). Malformed HTML code could lead to invalid memory accesses (CAN-2005-0208 and CAN-2005-0473).
Impact ======
Remote attackers could exploit these issues, resulting in a Denial of Service.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All Gaim users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-im/gaim-1.1.4"
