CVE-2011-4129

CVE-2011-4129 describes a vulnerability in libsocialweb, specifically in versions prior to 0.25.20, affecting GNOME. The flaw lies in the twitter-contact-view.c and twitter-item-view.c components, which automatically attempt to connect to Twitter even when no account is configured. This creates a medium-complexity attack vector (AC:M) where an unauthenticated remote attacker (AV:N/Au:N) could potentially intercept sensitive information via a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack, resulting in partial confidentiality and integrity impact (C:P/I:P). The CVSS score is 5.8, indicating a moderate severity. There is no evidence of active exploitation, no known exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), and minimal community or media attention.
