CVE-2004-0008

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.

Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.50%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
