The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 / 5 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2010:0044 advisory.

    Pidgin is an instant messaging program which can log in to multiple     accounts on multiple instant messaging networks simultaneously.

    A directory traversal flaw was discovered in Pidgin's MSN protocol     implementation. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted emoticon     image download request that would cause Pidgin to disclose an arbitrary     file readable to the user running Pidgin. (CVE-2010-0013)

    These packages upgrade Pidgin to version 2.6.5. Refer to the Pidgin release     notes for a full list of changes: http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/ChangeLog

    All Pidgin users should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct     this issue. Pidgin must be restarted for this update to take effect.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201206-11 (Pidgin: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Pidgin. Please review       the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    These vulnerabilities allow for arbitrary file retrieval, Denial of       Service and arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user       running Pidgin.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Security vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in pidgin :

The OSCAR protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.6.3 and Adium before 1.3.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via crafted contact-list data for (1) ICQ and possibly (2) AIM, as demonstrated by the SIM IM client (CVE-2009-3615).

Directory traversal vulnerability in slp.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin 2.6.4 and Adium 1.3.8 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in an application/x-msnmsgrp2p MSN emoticon (aka custom smiley) request, a related issue to CVE-2004-0122. NOTE: it could be argued that this is resultant from a vulnerability in which an emoticon download request is processed even without a preceding text/x-mms-emoticon message that announced availability of the emoticon (CVE-2010-0013).

Directory traversal vulnerability in slp.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin 2.6.4 and Adium 1.3.8 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in an application/x-msnmsgrp2p MSN emoticon (aka custom smiley) request, a related issue to CVE-2004-0122. NOTE: it could be argued that this is resultant from a vulnerability in which an emoticon download request is processed even without a preceding text/x-mms-emoticon message that announced availability of the emoticon (CVE-2010-0013).

Certain malformed SLP messages can trigger a crash because the MSN protocol plugin fails to check that all pieces of the message are set correctly (CVE-2010-0277).

In a user in a multi-user chat room has a nickname containing '<br>' then libpurple ends up having two users with username ' ' in the room, and Finch crashes in this situation. We do not believe there is a possibility of remote code execution (CVE-2010-0420).

oCERT notified us about a problem in Pidgin, where a large amount of processing time will be used when inserting many smileys into an IM or chat window. This should not cause a crash, but Pidgin can become unusable slow (CVE-2010-0423).

Packages for 2009.0 are provided due to the Extended Maintenance Program.

This update provides pidgin 2.6.6, which is not vulnerable to these issues.
