Uncovers Security Gap in Trillian
The vulnerability originally appeared
in Trillian 2.0. It was compounded because the same vulnerable code was
included in several different components and locations. Although many instances
of the bug were addressed in Trillian 3.0, at least two vulnerabilities
persisted in the Yahoo IM component.
According to LogicLibrary, these
exploitable unbounded buffer-iteration problems remain in the current product
version, Trillian 3.1. There are at least two exploitable yahoo.dll buffer
iteration bugs -- one is at 0x520296c6 and the other is at 0x5201a05f.
No patch noted yet but I would definitely
be on the lookout for one shortly from Trillian.
