CVE-2017-15722 (https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-15722):

In certain cases, Irssi before 1.0.5 may fail to verify that a Safe channel ID is long enough, causing reads beyond the end of the string.

CVE-2017-15723 (https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-15723):

CVE-2017-15721 (https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-15721):
