in gaim:

Buffer overflow in the XMPP SOCKS5 bytestream server in Pidgin before
2.5.6 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via
vectors involving an outbound XMPP file transfer.  NOTE: some of these
details are obtained from third party information (CVE-2009-1373).

Multiple integer overflows in the msn_slplink_process_msg functions
in the MSN protocol handler in (1) libpurple/protocols/msn/slplink.c
and (2) libpurple/protocols/msnp9/slplink.c in Pidgin before 2.5.6
on 32-bit platforms allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code
via a malformed SLP message with a crafted offset value, leading to
buffer overflows.  NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete
fix for CVE-2008-2927 (CVE-2009-1376).

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this.

Affected: Corporate 3.0";
