"Ian Murdock" Death



CONFIDENTIAL

Hello Debian / Savatore -

I am investigating the death of Ian Murdock and also a debian user.

  * Debian's core MIT distribution may have been compromised by
    "Ian" internally to get into one of our servers.

  * Can you confirm that "Ian Murdock" was the "ian" in debian?

  * Can you confirm that he is actually dead/committed suicide?

  * If not, did he fake his death?  Perhaps after compromising
    servers intentionally and committing many felonies?

The coroner and related PD have not responded however several
federal agencies are aware of the issue.

This is a very serious matter.

Thank you for your assistance!  

Kyle

 CVE-2016-2369 CVE-2016-2370 CVE-2016-2371 CVE-2016-2372
 CVE-2016-2373 CVE-2016-2374 CVE-2016-2375 CVE-2016-2376

Yves Younan of Cisco Talos discovered several vulnerabilities in the
MXit protocol support in pidgin, a multi-protocol instant messaging
client. A remote attacker can take advantage of these flaws to cause a
denial of service (application crash), overwrite files, information
disclosure, or potentially to execute arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
version 2.11.0-0+deb8u1.

For the testing distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed
in version 2.11.0-1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 2.11.0-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your pidgin packages.
