+    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Pidgin, leading to the

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    Pidgin is a client for a variety of instant messaging protocols.
+    </p>

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Multiple vulnerabilities were found in Pidgin:
+    </p>
+    <ul>
+    <li>Yuriy
+    Kaminskiy reported that the OSCAR protocol implementation in Pidgin
+    misinterprets the ICQWebMessage message type as the ICQSMS message
+    type, triggering an allocation of a large amount of memory
+    (CVE-2009-1889).</li>
+    <li>Federico Muttis of Core Security Technologies
+    reported that the msn_slplink_process_msg() function in
+    libpurple/protocols/msn/slplink.c in libpurple as used in Pidgin
+    doesn't properly process incoming SLP messages, triggering an overwrite
+    of an arbitrary memory location (CVE-2009-2694). NOTE: This issue
+    reportedly exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-1376 (GLSA
+    200905-07).</li>
+    <li>bugdave reported that protocols/jabber/auth.c in
+    libpurple as used in Pidgin does not follow the "require TSL/SSL"
+    preference when connecting to older Jabber servers that do not follow
+    the XMPP specification, resulting in a connection to the server without
+    the expected encryption (CVE-2009-3026).</li>
+    </ul>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could send specially crafted SLP (via MSN) or ICQ web
+    messages, possibly leading to execution of arbitrary code with the
+    privileges of the user running Pidgin, unauthorized information
+    disclosure, or a Denial of Service.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Pidgin users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-im/pidgin-2.5.9-r1"</code>
+  </resolution>
