Several bugfixes were done for the Instant Messenger Pidgin :

  • Malformed responses to file transfers could cause a buffer overflow in pidgin (CVE-2009-1373) and specially crafted packets could crash it. (CVE-2009-1375)

  • The fix against integer overflows in the msn protocol handling was incomplete. (CVE-2009-1376)

  • Fixed misparsing ICQ message as SMS DoS (CVE-2009-1889, Pidgin#9483).

Also the Yahoo IM protocol was made to work again.
