The version of Pidgin installed on the remote host is earlier than 2.10.7. It is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :
An error exists related to the βMXitβ plugin and the saving of images that could allow arbitrary files to be overwritten. (CVE-2013-0271)
A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the function βmxit_cb_http_readβ in the file βlibpurple/protocols/mxit/http.cβ that could allow arbitrary code execution when handling certain HTTP headers. (CVE-2013-0272)
An error exists in the function βmw_prpl_normalizeβ in the file βlibpurple/protocols/sametime/sametime.cβ that could allow denial of service attacks when handling user IDs longer than 4096 bytes. (CVE-2013-0273)
Errors exist in the functions βupnp_parse_description_cbβ, βpurple_upnp_discover_send_broadcastβ, βlooked_up_public_ip_cbβ, βlooked_up_internal_ip_cbβ, βpurple_upnp_set_port_mappingβ, and βpurple_upnp_remove_port_mappingβ in the file βlibpurple/upnp.cβ that could allow denial of service attacks when handling certain UPnP response messages.
