NASL family Red Hat Local Security Checks NASL id REDHAT-RHSA-2005-215.NASL description An updated gaim package that fixes various security issues as well as a number of bugs is now available. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. The Gaim application is a multi-protocol instant messaging client. Two HTML parsing bugs were discovered in Gaim. It is possible that a remote attacker could send a specially crafted message to a Gaim client, causing it to crash. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CVE-2005-0208 and CVE-2005-0473 to these issues. A bug in the way Gaim processes SNAC packets was discovered. It is possible that a remote attacker could send a specially crafted SNAC packet to a Gaim client, causing the client to stop responding. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0472 to this issue. Additionally, various client crashes, memory leaks, and protocol issues have been resolved. Users of Gaim are advised to upgrade to this updated package which contains Gaim version 1.1.4 and is not vulnerable to these issues. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 17310 published 2005-03-10 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2005-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/17310 title RHEL 3 / 4 : gaim (RHSA-2005:215) code #%NASL_MIN_LEVEL 80502 # # (C) Tenable Network Security, Inc. # # The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were # extracted from Red Hat Security Advisory RHSA-2005:215.
