Description Murray McAllister 2014-05-01 06:53:10 UTC
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2014-0364 to
the following vulnerability:

Name: CVE-2014-0364
URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0364
Assigned: 20131205
Reference: http://community.igniterealtime.org/blogs/ignite/2014/04/17/asmack-400-rc1-has-been-released
Reference: CERT-VN:VU#489228
Reference: http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/489228

The ParseRoster component in the Ignite Realtime Smack XMPP API before
4.0.0-rc1 does not verify the from attribute of a roster-query IQ
stanza, which allows remote attackers to spoof IQ responses via a
crafted attribute.

It is not clear whether this flaw affects the version of smack in Fedora. Both of these look to be needed to complete the fix:
