FTP path trickery leads to NIL byte out of bounds write

curl can be fooled into writing a zero byte out of bounds. This bug can trigger when curl is told to work on an FTP URL, with the setting to only issue a single CWD command --ftp-method singlecwd or the libcurl alternative CURLOPTFTPFILEMETHOD. curl then URL-decodes the given path, calls strlen o...
