An input sanitization flaw was found in the way the Pidgin SILC (Secure
Internet Live Conferencing) protocol plug-in escaped certain UTF-8
characters. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash Pidgin via a
specially-crafted SILC message. (CVE-2011-3594)
Multiple NULL pointer dereference flaws were found in the way the Pidgin
Yahoo! Messenger Protocol plug-in handled malformed YMSG packets. A remote
attacker could use these flaws to crash Pidgin via a specially-crafted
notification message. (CVE-2011-1091)
Red Hat would like to thank the Pidgin project for reporting CVE-2011-1091.
Upstream acknowledges Marius Wachtler as the original reporter of
CVE-2011-1091.
All Pidgin users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
backported patches to resolve these issues. Pidgin must be restarted for
this update to take effect.");
