Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.703492
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-3492-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'gajim' package(s) announced via the DSA-3492-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'gajim' package(s) announced via the DSA-3492-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
The wheezy part of the previous gajim update, DSA-3492-1, was incorrectly built resulting in an unsatisfiable dependency. This update corrects that problem. For reference, the original advisory text follows.

Daniel Gultsch discovered a vulnerability in Gajim, an XMPP/jabber client. Gajim didn't verify the origin of roster update, allowing an attacker to spoof them and potentially allowing her to intercept messages.

For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 0.15.1-4.1+deb7u2.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 0.16-1+deb8u1.

For the testing distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in version 0.16.5-0.1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 0.16.5-0.1.

We recommend that you upgrade your gajim packages.

Affected Software/OS:
'gajim' package(s) on Debian 7, Debian 8.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.8
