How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:13.04 telepathy-gabble to version 0.16.5-0ubuntu1.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream telepathy-gabble package and not the telepathy-gabble package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:13.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

The Wocky module in Telepathy Gabble before 0.16.6 and 0.17.x before 0.17.4, when connecting to a "legacy Jabber server," does not properly enforce the WockyConnector:tls-required flag, which allows remote attackers to bypass TLS verification and perform a man-in-the-middle attacks.
