warning message out-of-buffer read

curl contains a heap out of buffer read vulnerability. The command line tool has a generic function for displaying warning and informational messages to stderr for various situations. For example if an unknown command line argument is used, or passed to it in a "config" file. This display functio...

HTTP/2 trailer out-of-bounds read

libcurl contains an out bounds read in code handling HTTP/2 trailers. It was reported that reading an HTTP/2 trailer could mess up future trailers since the stored size was one byte less than required. The problem is that the code that creates HTTP/1-like headers from the HTTP/2 trailer data once...

SSL out of buffer access

libcurl contains an out boundary access flaw in SSL related code. When allocating memory for a connection the internal struct called connectdata, a certain amount of memory is allocated at the end of the struct to be used for SSL related structs. Those structs are used by the particular SSL libra...

FTP PWD response parser out of bounds read

libcurl may read outside of a heap allocated buffer when doing FTP. When libcurl connects to an FTP server and successfully logs in anonymous or not, it asks the server for the current directory with the PWD command. The server then responds with a 257 response containing the path, inside double...

invalid URL parsing with '#'

curl does not parse the authority component of the URL correctly when the host name part ends with a hash character, and could instead be tricked into connecting to a different host. This may have security implications if you for example use a URL parser that follows the RFC to check for allowed...

use of connection struct after free

libcurl is vulnerable to a use after free flaw. libcurl works with easy handles using the type 'CURL ' that are objects the application creates using curleasyinit. They are the handles that are all each associated with a single transfer at a time. libcurl also has an internal struct that represen...

cookie parser out of boundary memory access

libcurl supports HTTP "cookies" as documented in RFC 6265. Together with each individual cookie there are several different properties, but for this vulnerability we focus on the associated "path" element. It tells information about for which path on a given host the cookie is valid. The internal...

cookie leak with IP address as domain

By not detecting and rejecting domain names for partial literal IP addresses properly when parsing received HTTP cookies, libcurl can be fooled to both sending cookies to wrong sites and into allowing arbitrary sites to set cookies for others. For this problem to trigger, the client application...

cookie leak for TLDs

libcurl wrongly allows cookies to be set for Top Level Domains TLDs, thus making them apply broader than cookies are allowed. This can allow arbitrary sites to set cookies that then would get sent to a different and unrelated site or domain...

cert name check ignore OpenSSL

libcurl is vulnerable to a case of missing out the checking of the certificate CN or SAN name field when the digital signature verification is turned off. libcurl offers two separate and independent options for verifying a server's TLS certificate. CURLOPTSSLVERIFYPEER and CURLOPTSSLVERIFYHOST. T...

cookie domain tailmatch

libcurl is vulnerable to a cookie leak vulnerability when doing requests across domains with matching tails. When communicating over HTTPS and having libcurl's cookie engine enabled, libcurl stores and holds cookies for use when subsequent requests are done to hosts and paths that match those kep...

native CA store conn reuse

A flaw in libcurl makes it wrongly reuse an existing HTTPS connection setup for a given hostname even when using a different Native CA Store setting CURLSSLOPTNATIVECA than when the connection was created...

printf floating point buffer overflow

libcurl's implementation of the printf functions triggers a buffer overflow when doing a large floating point output. The bug occurs when the conversion outputs more than 255 bytes. The flaw happens because the floating point conversion is using system functions without the correct boundary check...

TFTP Packet Buffer Overflow

libcurl uses the given file part of a TFTP URL in a manner that allows a malicious user to overflow a heap-based memory buffer due to the lack of boundary check. This overflow happens if you pass in a URL with a TFTP protocol prefix "tftp://", using a valid host and a path part that is longer tha...

URL Buffer Overflow

libcurl's URL parser function can overflow a heap based buffer in two ways, if given a too long URL. These overflows happen if you 1 - pass in a URL with no protocol like "http://" prefix, using no slash and the string is 256 bytes or longer. This leads to a single zero byte overflow of the heap...
