libcurl.so is vulnerable to Use After Free. Even when the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS option is enabled, libcurl may mistakenly use the read callback (CURLOPT_READFUNCTION) while performing HTTP(S) transfers to request data to send. The application might misbehave and send the incorrect data or use memory that is no longer available as a result of this bug. The issue arises when it is anticipated that a reused handle will be converted from a PUT to a POST.
