Subject: [USN-8-1] gaim vulnerabilities

===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-8-1             October 27, 2004
gaim vulnerabilities
CAN-2004-0891
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)

The following packages are affected:

gaim

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 1:1.0.0-1ubuntu1.1. In general, a standard system upgrade is
sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

A buffer overflow and two remote crashes were recently discovered in
gaim's MSN protocol handler. An attacker could potentially execute
arbitrary code with the user's privileges by crafting and sending a
particular MSN message.
