Last modified
CVE-2004-0008 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Integer overflow in Gaim 0.74 and earlier, and Ultramagnetic before 0.81, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a directIM packet that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.. EPSS estimates a 8.50% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
