tag_insight = "Security vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in pidgin:

  The OSCAR protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.6.3 and Adium
  before 1.3.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
  (application crash) via crafted contact-list data for (1) ICQ and
  possibly (2) AIM, as demonstrated by the SIM IM client (CVE-2009-3615).
  
  Directory traversal vulnerability in slp.c in the MSN protocol
  plugin in libpurple in Pidgin 2.6.4 and Adium 1.3.8 allows
  remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in an
  application/x-msnmsgrp2p MSN emoticon (aka custom smiley) request,
  a related issue to CVE-2004-0122.  NOTE: it could be argued that
  this is resultant from a vulnerability in which an emoticon download
  request is processed even without a preceding text/x-mms-emoticon
  message that announced availability of the emoticon (CVE-2010-0013).
  
  Directory traversal vulnerability in slp.c in the MSN protocol
  plugin in libpurple in Pidgin 2.6.4 and Adium 1.3.8 allows
  remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in an
  application/x-msnmsgrp2p MSN emoticon (aka custom smiley) request,
  a related issue to CVE-2004-0122.  NOTE: it could be argued that
  this is resultant from a vulnerability in which an emoticon download
  request is processed even without a preceding text/x-mms-emoticon
  message that announced availability of the emoticon (CVE-2010-0013).
  
  Certain malformed SLP messages can trigger a crash because the MSN
  protocol plugin fails to check that all pieces of the message are
  set correctly (CVE-2010-0277).
  
  In a user in a multi-user chat room has a nickname containing '<br>'
  then libpurple ends up having two users with username ' ' in the room,
  and Finch crashes in this situation. We do not believe there is a
  possibility of remote code execution (CVE-2010-0420).
  
  oCERT notified us about a problem in Pidgin, where a large amount of
  processing time will be used when inserting many smileys into an IM
  or chat window. This should not cause a crash, but Pidgin can become
  unusable slow (CVE-2010-0423).
  
  Packages for 2009.0 are provided due to the Extended Maintenance
  Program.
  
  This update provides pidgin 2.6.6, which is not vulnerable to these
  issues.";
