An information disclosure vulnerability was found in irssi.

CVE-2016-7553 Other users on the same machine as the user running irssi with buf.pl loaded may be able to retrieve the whole window contents after /UPGRADE. Furthermore, this dump of the windows contents is never removed afterwards.

For Debian 7 ‘Wheezy’, this problems have been fixed in version 0.8.15-5+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your irssi packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
