Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2014-025

Posted Feb 11, 2014

Authored by Mandriva | Site mandriva.com

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2014-025 - The Yahoo! protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.10.8 does not properly validate UTF-8 data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted byte sequences. Multiple integer signedness errors in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.10.8 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted timestamp value in an XMPP message. gtkimhtml.c in Pidgin before 2.10.8 does not properly interact with underlying library support for wide Pango layouts, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long URL that is examined with a tooltip. util.c in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.10.8 does not properly allocate memory for HTTP responses that are inconsistent with the Content-Length header, which allows remote HTTP servers to cause a denial of service via a crafted response. Various other issues were also addressed.
