It was discovered that WeeChat’s logger plugin is vulnerable to an invalid buffer read which can be exploited remotely to trigger an application crash or other undefined behaviour.
For Debian 7 ‘Wheezy’, these problems have been fixed in version 0.3.8-1+deb7u3.
We recommend that you upgrade your weechat packages.
NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
