3. Description:
Pidgin is an instant messaging program which can log in to multiple
accounts on multiple instant messaging networks simultaneously.
A directory traversal flaw was discovered in Pidgin's MSN protocol
implementation. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted emoticon
image download request that would cause Pidgin to disclose an arbitrary
file readable to the user running Pidgin. (CVE-2010-0013)
These packages upgrade Pidgin to version 2.6.5. Refer to the Pidgin release
notes for a full list of changes: http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/ChangeLog
All Pidgin users should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct
this issue. Pidgin must be restarted for this update to take effect.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259
5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
552483 - CVE-2010-0013 pidgin/libpurple: MSN custom smiley request directory traversal file disclosure
