<p>
GNU Gadu, CenterICQ, Kadu, EKG and libgadu are vulnerable to an integer
overflow.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="high">
<p>
A remote attacker could exploit the integer overflow to execute
arbitrary code or cause a Denial of Service.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All GNU Gadu users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-im/gnugadu-2.2.6-r1"</code>
<p>
All Kadu users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-im/kadu-0.4.1"</code>
<p>
All EKG users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-im/ekg-1.6_rc3"</code>
<p>
All libgadu users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-libs/libgadu-20050719"</code>
<p>
All CenterICQ users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-im/centericq-4.20.0-r3"</code>
<p>
CenterICQ is no longer distributed with Gadu Gadu support, affected
users are encouraged to migrate to an alternative package.
