"Issue summary: An application using the OpenSSL HTTP client API
functions may trigger an out-of-bounds read if the 'no_proxy'
environment variable is set and the host portion of the authority
component of the HTTP URL is an IPv6 address.  Impact summary: An out-
of-bounds read can trigger a crash which leads to Denial of Service
for an application.  The OpenSSL HTTP client API functions can be used
directly by applications but they are also used by the OCSP client
functions and CMP (Certificate Management Protocol) client
implementation in OpenSSL. However the URLs used by these
implementations are unlikely to be controlled by an attacker.  In this
vulnerable code the out of bounds read can only trigger a crash.
Furthermore the vulnerability requires an attacker-controlled URL to
be passed from an application to the OpenSSL function and the user has
to have a 'no_proxy' environment variable set. For the aforementioned
reasons the issue was assessed as Low severity.  The vulnerable code
was introduced in the following patch releases: 3.0.16, 3.1.8, 3.2.4,
3.3.3, 3.4.0 and 3.5.0.  The FIPS modules in 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.2, 3.1
and 3.0 are not affected by this issue, as the HTTP client
implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.
