Use After Free
CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Use-after-free vulnerability in the createsmpdialog function in gtk-dialog.c in the Off-the-Record Messaging (OTR) pidgin-otr plugin before 4.0.2 for Pidgin allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors related to the "Authenticate buddy" menu item.

Buffer Overflow, Integer Overflow
CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Integer overflow in proto.c in libotr before 4.1.1 on 64-bit platforms allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or execute arbitrary code via a series of large OTR messages, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Format string vulnerability in the logmessagecb function in otr-plugin.c in the Off-the-Record Messaging (OTR) pidgin-otr plugin before 3.2.1 for Pidgin might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in data that generates a log message.

Buffer Overflow
AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

Multiple heap-based buffer overflow flaws were found in the way the Base64 decoder of libotr, an Off-The-Record Messaging library and toolkit, performed decoding of certain messages. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted OTR message that once processed in an application linked against libotr would lead to that application crash or, potentially, arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user running the application.
