Descriptions

Multiple integer overflows in libgadu, as used in Kopete in KDE 3.2.3 to 3.4.1, ekg before 1.6rc3, GNU Gadu, CenterICQ, Kadu, and other packages, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an incoming message.

Múltiples desbordamientos de búfer en libgadu, usado en Kopete en KDE 3.2.3 hasta la 3.4.1, ekg anteriores a 1.6rc3, GNU Gadu, CenterICQ, Kadu, y otros paquetes, permite que atacantes remotos causen una denegación de servicio (caída) y posiblemente ejecuten código arbitrario mediante un mensaje de entrada.

KDE Security Advisory: Kopete contains a copy of libgadu that is used if no compatible version is installed in the system. Several input validation errors have been reported in libgadu that can lead to integer overflows and remote DoS or arbitrary code execution. All versions of Kopete as included in KDE 3.3.x up to including 3.4.1 are affected. KDE 3.2.x and older are not affected.
