USN-2477-1 libevent vulnerability
Andrew Bartlett discovered that libevent incorrectly handled large inputs to the evbuffer API. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue with an application that uses libevent to cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code...
libevent: heap overflow
A defect in the libevent evbuffer API could possibly leave some programs that use the evbuffer API open to potential heap overflows. A program using the evbufferadd, evbufferprepend, evbufferexpand, exbufferreservespace, or evbufferread functions may be vulnerable if an attacker is able to coax t...
FreeBSD : libevent -- integer overflow in evbuffers (daa8a49b-99b9-11e4-8f66-3085a9a4510d)
Debian Security Team reports : Andrew Bartlett of Catalyst reported a defect affecting certain applications using the Libevent evbuffer API. This defect leaves applications which pass insanely large inputs to evbuffers open to a possible heap overflow or infinite loop. In order to exploit this...

UBUNTU-CVE-2014-6272
Multiple integer overflows in the evbuffer API in Libevent 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 2.0.x before 2.0.22, and 2.1.x before 2.1.5-beta allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other unspecified impact via "insanely large inputs" to the 1 evbufferadd, 2...
