Hi all,

An uncontrolled format string has been fixed in WeeChat 0.4.1, which was
released yesterday.

It could happen in the following situations:

- when the relay receives the output of a redirected command (when using irc
  protocol in relay plugin)
  (it affects WeeChat 0.3.8 to 0.4.0)

- when sending the "ISON" command to irc server, for nicks monitored by command
  /notify
  (it affects WeeChat 0.3.6 to 0.4.0)

- when sending an unknown command to irc server (if option
  "irc.network.send_unknown_commands" is enabled)
  (it affects WeeChat 0.3.0 to 0.4.0)

For more info and workarounds, visit the WeeChat security page:
