Description Mark J. Cox 2005-07-21 11:54:25 UTC

"Kopete contains a copy of libgadu that is used if
no compatible version is installed in the system. Several
input validation errors have been reported in libgadu
that can lead to integer overflows and remote DoS or
arbitrary code execution."

Affects: RHEL4 (not RHEL3, not RHEL2.1)

i built new kdenetwork-3.3.1-2.2 in dist-4.0-errata-candidate tree. it fixes
this problem.
