CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT 
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

PACKAGE   : gaim
SUMMARY   : Several remote vulnerabilities
DATE      : 2004-02-10 19:03:00
ID        : CLA-2004:813
RELEVANT
RELEASES  : 8, 9

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION
 Gaim is a multi-protocol, multi-platform instant messaging client.
 
 Stefan Esser found[1] several remote vulnerabilities in Gaim. A
 remote attacker can use specially crafted network packets to exploit
 at least one of these vulnerabilities and execute arbitrary code in
 the context of the user running the program or cause a denial of
 service condition.
 
 This update includes updated packages for Conectiva Linux 8 (Gaim
 0.58.8) and Conectiva Linux 9 (Gaim 0.75). The vulnerabilities vary
 accordingly to the version used, but both are susceptible to remote
 attacks.
 
 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
 has assigned the names CAN-2004-0005, CAN-2004-0006, CAN-2004-0007
 and CAN-2004-0008 to the issues discovered[2,3,4,5].


SOLUTION
 All gaim users should upgrade.
