Package : pidgin
Version : 2.10.10-1~deb7u3
CVE ID : CVE-2017-2640

It was discovered that an invalid XML file can trigger an out-of-bound
memory access in Pidgin, a multi-protocol instant messaging client,
when it is sent by a malicious server. This might lead to a crash or,
in some extreme cases, to remote code execution in the client-side.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
2.10.10-1~deb7u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your pidgin packages.
