The upstream developer of curl, a multi-protocol file transfer library, informed us that the former correction to several off-by-one errors are not sufficient. For completeness please find the original bug description below :
Several problems were discovered in libcurl, a multi-protocol file transfer library. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :
- CVE-2005-3185 A buffer overflow has been discovered in libcurl that could allow the execution of arbitrary code.
- CVE-2005-4077 Stefan Esser discovered several off-by-one errors that allows local users to trigger a buffer overflow and cause a denial of service or bypass PHP security restrictions via certain URLs.
