Description:
10
 
 A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the handling of the MXIT protocol
11
 
 in Pidgin. Specially crafted MXIT data sent by the server could potentially
12
 
 result in an out-of-bounds write of one byte. A malicious server can send a
13
 
 negative content-length in response to a HTTP request triggering the
14
 
 vulnerability.
