    Is yahoo Messenger still vulnerable?

    I wonder if Yahoo messenger still vulnerable with its new version? And is there any " small programme" to exploit buffer over flow in this version?

    Still vulnerable to what, exactly?

    Have you checked Bugtraq to see if there are any vulnerabilities associated with the newest version of Yahoo Messenger?

    How about reading the changelog to see what's fixed?

    http://www.securityfocus.com/ hosts bugtraq. You can sign up for a mail list if you'd like.

    And a changelog is usually a text file in the program directory that explains what has been "fixed" for the latest version.
