Vulnerable Configurations
Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
- Overflow Buffers Buffer Overflow attacks target improper or missing bounds checking on buffer operations, typically triggered by input injected by an attacker. As a consequence, an attacker is able to write past the boundaries of allocated buffer regions in memory, causing a program crash or potentially redirection of execution as per the attackers' choice.
- Client-side Injection-induced Buffer Overflow This type of attack exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in targeted client software through injection of malicious content from a custom-built hostile service.
- Filter Failure through Buffer Overflow In this attack, the idea is to cause an active filter to fail by causing an oversized transaction. An attacker may try to feed overly long input strings to the program in an attempt to overwhelm the filter (by causing a buffer overflow) and hoping that the filter does not fail securely (i.e. the user input is let into the system unfiltered).
- MIME Conversion An attacker exploits a weakness in the MIME conversion routine to cause a buffer overflow and gain control over the mail server machine. The MIME system is designed to allow various different information formats to be interpreted and sent via e-mail. Attack points exist when data are converted to MIME compatible format and back.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Pidgin is an instant messaging program which can log in to multiple accounts on multiple instant messaging networks simultaneously. A flaw was found in the way the Pidgin MSN protocol plug-in processed text that was not encoded in UTF-8. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash Pidgin by sending a specially crafted MSN message. (CVE-2012-1178) An input validation flaw was found in the way the Pidgin MSN protocol plug-in handled MSN notification messages. A malicious server or a remote attacker could use this flaw to crash Pidgin by sending a specially crafted MSN notification message. (CVE-2012-2318) A buffer overflow flaw was found in the Pidgin MXit protocol plug-in. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash Pidgin by sending a MXit message containing specially crafted emoticon tags. (CVE-2012-3374) Red Hat would like to thank the Pidgin project for reporting the CVE-2012-3374 issue. Upstream acknowledges Ulf Harnhammar as the original reporter of CVE-2012-3374.
