CVE-2005-0573
Gaim 1.1.3 on Windows systems allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (client crash) via a file transfer in which the filename contains "(" or ")" (parenthesis) characters.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.26%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
