Description:
infamous41md has reported two vulnerabilities in cURL/libcURL, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
1) A boundary error in the "Curl_input_ntlm()" function during NTLM authentication can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by returning an overly long response when a user is tricked into connecting to a malicious server.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
2) A boundary error in the "Curl_krb_kauth()" function during Kerberos authentication can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by returning an overly long response when a user is tricked into connecting to a malicious server.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 7.12.1. Other versions may also be affected.
