curl is vulnerable to denial of service (DoS) attacks. This is because the libcurl does not safely parse FTP URLs when using the CURLOPT_FTP_FILEMETHOD method. An attacker could send a specially crafted FTP URL to an application could write a NULL byte at an arbitrary location resulting in an application crash.
