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-2009-3085 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-2009-3085/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3085/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-3085","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3085/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-3085","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2009-3085","GHSA-pqhg-j5hh-cx9v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Pidgin XMPP plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash the Pidgin application by sending specially crafted XHTML-IM content with cid: images via the XMPP protocol.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"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":[],"description":"The XMPP protocol plugin in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.6.2 does not properly handle an error IQ stanza during an attempted fetch of a custom smiley, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via XHTML-IM content with cid: images.","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":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3085","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"pidgin:pidgin","products":["pidgin:pidgin"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"actionpack and activesupport vulnerable to information leaks","id":"CVE-2009-3086"},"packages":[],"prev":{"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"},"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":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3083","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":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":"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 the Pidgin application by sending specially crafted XHTML-IM content with cid: images via the XMPP protocol.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3085/"}
