Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2005:639 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Critical: kdenetwork security update 2005-07-21 04:00:00 UTC

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)
