Package : psi
Vulnerability : integer overflow
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-6393
Debian Bug : 518468

Jesus Olmos Gonzalez discovered that an integer overflow in the PSI
Jabber client may lead to remote denial of service.

The old stable distribution (etch) is not affected.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
