Description Karol Wojtaszek (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-11-30 14:14:22 UTC
Micha&#322; Gizowski has found remote DoS in net-im/kadu. More information:
http://www.security.nnov.ru/Kdocument422.html. I've just added kadu-0.4.3 to
portage, which fixes this bug. We need to push it stable.

If it's true format string, it should allow more than just DoS...

Reopening for GLSA decision. I tend to vote no. 
Comment 7 Thierry Carrez (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-03 08:25:42 UTC
That's not format string, hence the DoS-only thing. Voting no and closing
without GLSA, feel free to rteopen if you intended to vote yes.
