receiving certain malformed HTML messages. (CAN-2005-0965)

Jean-Yves Lefort also noticed that many functions that handle IRC
commands do not escape received HTML metacharacters; this allowed
remote attackers to cause a Denial of Service by injecting arbitrary
HTML code into the conversation window, popping up arbitrarily many
empty dialog boxes, or even causing Gaim to crash. (CAN-2005-0966).

A buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the way that gaim escapes

to a gaim client and causing it to crash (CVE-2005-0965).

A bug was discovered in several of gaim's IRC processing functions
that fail to properly remove various markup tags within an IRC
message. This could allow a remote attacker to send specially crafted
message to a gaim client connected to an IRC server, causing it to
crash (CVE-2005-0966).

Finally, a problem was found in gaim's Jabber message parser that
would allow a remote Jabber user to send a specially crafted message
to a gaim client, bausing it to crash (CVE-2005-0967).

Gaim version 1.2.1 is not vulnerable to these issues and is provided

    A buffer overread in the gaim_markup_strip_html() function,
    which is used when logging conversations (CAN-2005-0965).
    Markup tags are improperly escaped using Gaim's IRC plugin
