#14830: dbus information leakage
------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
Reporter: dfunc | Owner: bleeter

Milestone: Patches welcome | Component: privacy
Version: 2.10.0 | Resolution:
Keywords: libpurple dbus plugins |

Comment(by bleeter):
Whilst we're working this and awaiting patches, etc., I'd suggest that
anyone using OTR and Pidgin (and Adium) refrains from using OTR on
Windows, OSX and a *nix windowed environment until such time as issues
surrounding DBus, VNC, xwd et al can be resolved. If one wishes to reduce
surface area of potential attack for Pidgin+OTR, seems the obvious thing
to do is to help out with purple-otr (and use it with finch on, say, a
Linux virtual terminal).
