JLSEC-2025-34 This flaw makes curl overflow a heap based buffer in the SOCKS5 proxy handshake.

This flaw makes curl overflow a heap based buffer in the SOCKS5 proxy handshake. When curl is asked to pass along the host name to the SOCKS5 proxy to allow that to resolve the address instead of it getting done by curl itself, the maximum length that host name can be is 255 bytes. If the host na...
