A stack based buffer overflow bug was found in the way gaim processes
a message containing a URL. A remote attacker could send a carefully

victim's machine. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
(cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-1261 to this issue.

remote attacker could send a carefully crafted MSN message causing
