Several problems were discovered in libcurl, a multi-protocol file transfer library. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2005-3185

A buffer overflow has been discovered in libcurl that could allow the execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2005-4077

Stefan Esser discovered several off-by-one errors that allows local users to trigger a buffer overflow and cause a denial of service or bypass PHP security restrictions via certain URLs.

For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 7.9.5-1woody2.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 7.13.2-2sarge5. This update also includes a bugfix against data corruption.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 7.15.1-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libcurl packages.");
