  • specially crafted MSN SLP messages could cause an integer overflow in pidgin. Attackers could potentially exploit that to execute arbitrary code (CVE-2008-2927).

    • overly long file names in MSN file transfers could crash pidgin (CVE-2008-2955).

    • SSL certifcates were not verfied. Therefore piding didn’t notice faked certificates (CVE-2008-3532)

Additionally a problem was fixed that prevented gaim clients from connecting to the ICQ network after a server change on July 1st 2008.
