CVE-2016-2370
Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.9)—
Existe una vulnerabilidad de denegación de servicio en el manejo del protocolo MXIT en Pidgin. Datos MXIT especialmente manipulados enviados desde el servidor podrían resultar potencialmente en una lectura fuera de límites. Un servidor malicioso o un atacante man-in-the-middle puede enviar datos no válidos para desencadenar esta vulnerabilidad.
