tag_insight = "USN-929-1 fixed vulnerabilities in irssi. The upstream changes introduced a
regression when using irssi with SSL and an IRC proxy. This update fixes
the problem.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Original advisory details:
It was discovered that irssi did not perform certificate host validation
when using SSL connections. An attacker could exploit this to perform a man
in the middle attack to view sensitive information or alter encrypted
communications. (CVE-2010-1155)
Aurelien Delaitre discovered that irssi could be made to dereference a NULL
pointer when a user left the channel. A remote attacker could cause a
denial of service via application crash. (CVE-2010-1156)
This update also adds SSLv3 and TLSv1 support, while disabling the old,
insecure SSLv2 protocol.";
