"Just Ferguson discovered that libotr, an off-the-record (OTR)
messaging library, can be forced to perform zero-length allocations
for heap buffers that are used in base64 decoding routines. An
attacker can exploit this flaw by sending crafted messages to an
application that is using libotr to perform denial of service attacks
or potentially execute arbitrary code."
