Background
Gajim is a Jabber/XMPP client which uses GTK+.
Description
Gajim unconditionally implements the “XEP-0146: Remote Controlling Clients” extension.
Impact
Remote attackers, by enticing a user to connect to a malicious XMPP server, could extract plaintext from Off The Record (OTR) encrypted sessions.
Workaround
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
All Gajim users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-im/gajim-0.16.6-r1"
| OS | Version | Architecture | Package | Version | Filename |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gentoo | any | all | net-im/gajim | < 0.16.6-r1 | UNKNOWN |
