patch to fedora core 1's gaim - for buffer overflows none

Description Roozbeh Pournader 2004-01-11 15:13:16 UTC 
Description of problem:
Gaim 0.74 that is the latest in FC updates doesn't work with Yahoo
anymore. It should be updated to 0.75 as soon as possible, since it
has lost some functionality.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gaim-0.74-5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to sign on with Yahoo.
  
Actual results:
A dialog with "Incorrect Password" opens.

Expected results:
It should connect to the service.

Additional info:
Gaim 0.75 is available from http://gaim.sourceforge.net/downloads.php
Comment 1 Roozbeh Pournader 2004-01-15 03:23:54 UTC 
Seems that Yahoo problems are not completely solved with 0.75. At least
that is what the subject line of #gaim on irc.freenode.net is claiming:
"If you're having problems with Yahoo!, wait for 0.76".
Comment 2 Bart Martens 2004-01-29 17:00:02 UTC 
The severity of this bug should be increased to "security". See the
security errata for Red Hat 9.
Comment 3 Bart Martens 2004-01-31 19:33:17 UTC 
Version 0.75 is available at:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/1/i386/gaim-0.75-0.i386.rpm

This version should have been released as a security fix on 26 january
2004. See:
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2004-032.html

I suggest to increase the severity to "security".
Comment 4 Seth Vidal 2004-02-08 04:04:06 UTC 
The attached patch should be applied to gaim for fedora core and
pushed to updates, pronto.

the patch is the same one in rhl9, applies  and builds cleanly.
