An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2009-3083 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Pidgin Pidgin. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3083/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3083/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-3083","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3083/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-3083","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2009-3083","GHSA-xm3f-7w29-9q8h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Pidgin instant messenger","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash Pidgin via malformed MSN SLP invite messages due to a NULL pointer dereference in the protocol plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"libpurple","vendor":"pidgin"},{"product":"pidgin","vendor":"pidgin"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"The msn_slp_sip_recv function in libpurple/protocols/msn/slp.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.6.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via an SLP invite message that lacks certain required fields, as demonstrated by a malformed message from a KMess client.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3083","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"pidgin:pidgin","products":["pidgin:pidgin"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"The msn_slp_process_msg function in libpurple/protocols/msn/slpcall.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple 2.6.0 and 2.6.1, as used in Pi","id":"CVE-2009-3084"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3082"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-09-08","related":[{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2703","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-09-08"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"The msn_slp_process_msg function in libpurple/protocols/msn/slpcall.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple 2.6.0 and 2.6.1, as used in Pi","id":"CVE-2009-3084","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-09-08"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3085","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-09-08"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3594","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-11-04"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-2943","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-08-29"},{"cvss_score":4,"headline":"directconn.c in the MSN protocol plugin in libpurple 2.7.6 through 2.7.8 in Pidgin before 2.7.9 allows remote authenticated users to cause a","id":"CVE-2010-4528","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-01-07"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can crash Pidgin via malformed MSN SLP invite messages due to a NULL pointer dereference in the protocol plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3083/"}
