Category:	Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:	Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-106-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'gaim' package(s) announced via the USN-106-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'gaim' package(s) announced via the USN-106-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Jean-Yves Lefort discovered a buffer overflow in the gaim_markup_strip_html() function. This caused Gaim to crash when receiving certain malformed HTML messages. (CAN-2005-0965) Jean-Yves Lefort also noticed that many functions that handle IRC commands do not escape received HTML metacharacters, this allowed remote attackers to cause a Denial of Service by injecting arbitrary HTML code into the conversation window, popping up arbitrarily many empty dialog boxes, or even causing Gaim to crash. (CAN-2005-0966) Affected Software/OS: 'gaim' package(s) on Ubuntu 4.10. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.4 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P
