"BitlBee 3.5.1 (30 Jan 2017) ===========================
- purple: Fix crash on file transfer requests from unknown
contacts. This was the result of an incomplete fix in
the previous release and may result in remote DoS. Read
the full security advisory at:
https://bugs.bitlbee.org/ticket/1282
- After some investigation we decided to reclassify a
crash fix from the previous release as a security issue.
Read the full security advisory at:
https://bugs.bitlbee.org/ticket/1281
- Included help.txt in the release tarball, which was
missing in the previous release and resulted in adding
python as a build dependency. The release tarball of
3.5.1 does not require python.
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as
possible without introducing additional issues."
