"cURL developers report :

libcurl is vulnerable to a case of bad checking of the input data
which may lead to heap corruption.

The function curl_easy_unescape() decodes URL-encoded strings to raw
binary data. URL-encoded octets are represented with %HH combinations
where HH is a two-digit hexadecimal number. The decoded string is
written to an allocated memory area that the function returns to the
caller.

The function takes a source string and a length parameter, and if the
length provided is 0 the function will instead use strlen() to figure
out how much data to parse.

The '%HH' parser wrongly only considered the case where a zero byte
would terminate the input. If a length-limited buffer was passed in
which ended with a '%' character which was followed by two hexadecimal
digits outside of the buffer libcurl was allowed to parse alas without
a terminating zero, libcurl would still parse that sequence as well.
The counter for remaining data to handle would then be decreased too
much and wrap to become a very large integer and the copying would go
on too long and the destination buffer that is allocated on the heap
would get overwritten.

We consider it unlikely that programs allow user-provided strings
unfiltered into this function. Also, only the not zero-terminated
input string use case is affected by this flaw. Exploiting this flaw
for gain is probably possible for specific circumstances but we
consider the general risk for this to be low.

The curl command line tool is not affected by this problem as it
doesn't use this function.

There are no known exploits available at this time."
