==========================================================Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1014-1          November 04, 2010
pidgin vulnerabilities
CVE-2010-1624, CVE-2010-3711
==========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Ubuntu 9.10
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Ubuntu 10.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
  pidgin                          1:2.4.1-1ubuntu2.10

Ubuntu 9.10:
  pidgin                          1:2.6.2-1ubuntu7.3

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
  pidgin                          1:2.6.6-1ubuntu4.1

Ubuntu 10.10:
  pidgin                          1:2.7.3-1ubuntu3.1

After a standard system update you need to restart Pidgin to make all the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

Pierre Noguès discovered that Pidgin incorrectly handled malformed SLP
messages in the MSN protocol handler. A remote attacker could send a
specially crafted message and cause Pidgin to crash, leading to a denial
of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, 9.10 and 10.04 LTS.
(CVE-2010-1624)

Daniel Atallah discovered that Pidgin incorrectly handled the return code
of the Base64 decoding function. A remote attacker could send a specially
crafted message and cause Pidgin to crash, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2010-3711)
