Unspecified vulnerability in Adium before 1.2 has unknown impact and attack vectors related to javascript: URLs, possibly cross-site scripting (XSS).

An integer overflow in Pidgin's MSN protocol handler could allow malformed SLP message to cause an integer overflow, which could result in arbitrary code execution.

This flaw is only exploitable by individuals who can message a user, which is controlled by the Pidgin privacy setting. The default setting is to only allow messages from users in the buddy list.

The OSCAR protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.6.3 and Adium before 1.3.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via crafted contact-list data for (1) ICQ and possibly (2) AIM, as demonstrated by the SIM IM client.

Core Security Technologies reported that previous upstream fixes addressing insufficient input validation flaw in pidgin / libpurple in function msnslplinkprocessmsg() are inefficient and can be bypassed. This flaw allows an attacker to overwrite pidgin's memory and possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running application using libpurple.

This issue was previously tracked as CVE-2008-2927 (bug #453764) and CVE-2009-1376 (bug #500493, incomplete fix).

slp.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin 2.6.4 and Adium 1.3.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors, a different issue than CVE-2010-0013.

Directory traversal vulnerability in slp.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin 2.6.4 and Adium 1.3.8 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in an application/x-msnmsgrp2p MSN emoticon (aka custom smiley) request, a related issue to CVE-2004-0122. NOTE: it could be argued that this is resultant from a vulnerability in which an emoticon download request is processed even without a preceding text/x-mms-emoticon message that announced availability of the emoticon.

slp.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin 2.6.4 and Adium 1.3.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors, a different issue than CVE-2010-0013.
