A vulnerability has been identified in Colloquy, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service. This issue is due to format string errors in "_invitedToRoom" and "_invitedToDirectChat" [Controllers/JVChatController.m] when handling a specially crafted "INVITE" request, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable application, creating a denial of service condition.
