Debian Bug : #680661
Ulf Härnhammar found a buffer overflow in Pidgin, a multi protocol instant messaging client. The vulnerability can be exploited by an incoming
message in the MXit protocol plugin. A remote attacker may cause a crash,
and in some circumstances can lead to remote code execution.
For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.7.3-1+squeeze3.
For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
