pidgin was updated to fix 4 security issues :

  • Fixed a crash when receiving UPnP responses with abnormally long values. (CVE-2013-0274, bnc#804742)

  • Fixed a crash in Sametime protocol when a malicious server sends us an abnormally long user ID.
    (CVE-2013-0273, bnc#804742)

  • Fixed a bug where the MXit server or a man-in-the-middle could potentially send specially crafted data that could overflow a buffer and lead to a crash or remote code execution. (CVE-2013-0272, bnc#804742)

  • Fixed a bug where a remote MXit user could possibly specify a local file path to be written to.
    (CVE-2013-0271, bnc#804742)
