double free in krb5 code

In curl's implementation of the Kerberos authentication mechanism, the function readdata in security.c is used to fill the necessary krb5 structures. When reading one of the length fields from the socket, it fails to ensure that the length parameter passed to realloc is not set to 0. This would...

not verifying certs for TLS to IP address / Schannel

When asked to do a TLS connection HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, etc to a URL specified with an IP address instead of a name, libcurl would wrongly not verify the server's name in the certificate. The signature whether it was signed by a trusted CA and validity whether the date was within the certificate's...

SASL password overflow via integer overflow

libcurl contains a buffer overrun in the SASL authentication code. The internal function Curlauthcreateplainmessage fails to correctly verify that the passed in lengths for name and password are not too long, then calculates a buffer size to allocate. On systems with a 32-bit sizet, the math to...

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...
