Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Pidgin version 2.10.0
Description
The issue allows local users to obtain sensitive information via a dbus session monitor, as Pidgin 2.10.0 uses DBUS for certain cleartext communication.
Recommendations
For Pidgin version 2.10.0, consider restricting access to the DBUS interface to minimize the risk of exploitation. As a temporary workaround, avoid using cleartext communication via DBUS until a patch is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
