The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0965 to this issue. A bug was found in several of gaim's IRC processing functions. These functions fail to properly remove various markup tags within an IRC message. It is possible that a remote attacker could send a specially crafted message to a Gaim client connected to an IRC server, causing it to crash. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0966 to this issue. A bug was found in gaim's Jabber message parser.
