gaim vulnerabilities Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : These remote packages are missing security patches : - gaim - gaim-data - gaim-dev Description : Daniel Atallah discovered a Denial of Service vulnerability in the file transfer handler of OSCAR (the module that handles various instant messaging protocols like ICQ). A remote attacker could crash the Gaim client of an user by attempting to send him a file with a name that contains invalid UTF-8 characters. (CVE-2005-2102) It was found that specially crafted "away" messages triggered a buffer overflow. A remote attacker could exploit this to crash the Gaim client or possibly even execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the Gaim user. (CVE-2005-2103) Szymon Zygmunt and MichaĆ Bartoszkiewicz discovered a memory alignment error in the Gadu library, which was fixed in USN-162-1. However, it was discovered that Gaim contains a copy of the vulnerable code. By sending specially crafted messages over the Gadu protocol, a remote attacker could crash Gaim. (CVE-2005-2370) Solution : Upgrade to : - gaim-1.1.4-1ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 5.04) - gaim-data-1.1.4-1ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 5.04) - gaim-dev-1.1.4-1ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 5.04) Network Security Threat Level: High Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2005 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2005 Michel Arboi |
