Specially crafted MXIT data sent via the server could potentially result in an out-of-bounds read. A malicious user, server, or man-in-the-middle attacker can send an invalid size for a file transfer which will trigger an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. This could result in a denial of service or copy data from memory to the file, resulting in an information leak if the file is sent to another user." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "out-of-bounds read" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "name": "91335", "refsource": "BID", "url": "http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/91335" }, { "name": "DSA-3620", "refsource": "DEBIAN", "url": "http://www.debian.org/security/2016/dsa-3620" }, { "name": "http://www.talosintelligence.com/reports/TALOS-2016-0140/", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "http://www.talosintelligence.com/reports/TALOS-2016-0140/" }, { "name": "GLSA-201701-38", "refsource": "GENTOO", "url": "https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/201701-38" }, { "name": "USN-3031-1", "refsource": "UBUNTU", "url": "http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/USN-3031-1" }, { "name": "http://www.pidgin.im/news/security/?id=105", "refsource": "CONFIRM", "url": "http://www.pidgin.im/news/security/?id=105" } ] } }
