Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.
** Visibility changed to: Public ** This bug is no longer flagged as a security vulnerability -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1047732 Title: Gtalk oauth opening http://www.mardy.it/oauth2callback Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When enabling my Google Talk account in Empathy, I get authorization errors. Pages open in my browser every time the account tries to log in, to http://www.mardy.it/oauth2callback?code=... The address has a different code value each time. mardy.it appears to be a blogger.com blog, and the oauth2callback appears to have a favicon from a drupal installation. I could just be paranoid, but I'd rather this be investigated as a potential security issue. I have disabled my Google account in Empathy, just in case someone has hijacked something.
