Upgrade Centos:6 pidgin to version 0:2.7.9-10.el6_4.1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream pidgin package and not the pidgin package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.
upnp.c in libpurple in Pidgin before 2.10.7 does not properly terminate long strings in UPnP responses, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) by leveraging access to the local network.
