This update for libmicrohttpd fixes the following issues :

  • CVE-2013-7038: The MHD_http_unescape function in libmicrohttpd might have allowed remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (crash) via unspecified vectors that trigger an out-of-bounds read. (bsc#854443)

  • CVE-2013-7039: Stack-based buffer overflow in the MHD_digest_auth_check function in libmicrohttpd, when MHD_OPTION_CONNECTION_MEMORY_LIMIT is set to a large value, allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long URI in an authentication header. (bsc#854443)

  • Fixed various bugs found during a 2017 audit, which are more hardening measures and not security issues.
    (bsc#1041216)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
