CVE-2013-6487

Publication date 3 February 2014

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Integer overflow in libpurple/protocols/gg/lib/http.c in the Gadu-Gadu (gg) parser in Pidgin before 2.10.8 allows remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via a large Content-Length value, which triggers a buffer overflow.
