CURL-CVE-2018-1000122
No affected components available
curl can be tricked into copying data beyond end of its heap based buffer.
When asked to transfer an RTSP URL, curl could calculate a wrong data length
to copy from the read buffer. The memcpy() call would copy data from the
heap following the buffer to a storage area that would subsequently be
delivered to the application (if it did not cause a crash). We have managed to
get it to reach several hundreds bytes out of range.
This could lead to information leakage or a denial of service for the application if the server offering the RTSP data can trigger this.
