Two off-by-one errors in libcurl's URL parser allow a buffer overflow and cause a DoS via certain URLs that (1) are malformed in a way that prevents a terminating NUL byte from being added to either a hostname or path buffer, or (2) contain a "?" separator in the hostname portion, which causes a "/" to be prepended to the resulting string. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id CVE-2005-4077 [2] to the problem. ________________________________________________________________________ References: [0] http://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_20051207.html [1] http://curl.haxx.se/ [2] http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2005-4077 ________________________________________________________________________ For security reasons, this advisory was digitally signed with the OpenPGP public key "OpenPKG <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" (ID 63C4CB9F) of the OpenPKG project which you can retrieve from http://pgp.openpkg.org and hkp://pgp.openpkg.org.
