Descriptions

Pidgin version <2.11.0 contains a vulnerability in X.509 Certificates imports specifically due to improper check of return values from gnutls_x509_crt_init() and gnutls_x509_crt_import() that can result in code execution. This attack appear to be exploitable via custom X.509 certificate from another client. This vulnerability appears to have been fixed in 2.11.0.

Pidgin en versiones anteriores a la 2.11.0 contiene una vulnerabilidad en las importaciones de certificados X.509, concretamente debido a la comprobación incorrecta de valores de retorno de gnutls_x509_crt_init() y gnutls_x509_crt_import() que puede resultar en la ejecución de código. Este ataque parece ser explotable mediante un certificado X.509 personalizado de otro cliente. La vulnerabilidad parece haber sido solucionada en la versión 2.11.0.
