telepathy-idle < 0.1.15 does not verify that the server's TLS certificate was
issued by a trusted CA, or that it hasn't expired, or that it matches the
server's hostname.

Additionally, telepathy-idle < 0.1.11 does not do any verification at all.

Here is a proposed patch for wheezy, either via t-p-u for wheezy r0 or
security/s-p-u for wheezy r1.

Security team: wheezy is vulnerable to this, and has a somewhat older
upstream version than unstable (so it can't migrate that way). How do
you want us to deal with this? I've re-attached the proposed patch for
wheezy for your reference.

I've requested a CVE ID on oss-security.

I don't have a patch for squeeze, which would require implementing
OpenSSL cert-checking in long-superseded code.

I don't think this is RC, particularly for squeeze: IRC is typically
used without SSL, and the telepathy-idle version in squeeze is a pretty
poor IRC implementation in general. It's telling that this is the one
Telepathy component that has never had a stable-branch...

I guess TPU can be used for that, please synchronize with the release
team. I agree it's not material for a DSA.
