<p>
|
|
Ulf Harnhammar reported a possible buffer overflow in the handling
|
|
of TFTP URLs in libcurl due to the lack of boundary checks.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to compromise a
|
|
user's system by enticing the user to request a malicious URL with
|
|
cURL/libcurl or to use a HTTP server redirecting to a malicious TFTP
|
|
URL.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All cURL users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-misc/curl-7.15.1-r1"</code>
|
|
