1. Summary:
An updated jabberd package that fixes one security issue is now available
for Red Hat Network Satellite 5.5 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6.
The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having low
security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,

3. Description:
This package provides jabberd 2, an Extensible Messaging and Presence

It was discovered that the XMPP Dialback protocol implementation in
jabberd 2 did not properly validate Verify Response and Authorization

server-to-server communication port could possibly use this flaw to spoof
source domains of the XMPP messages. (CVE-2012-3525)
