Changelog
Daniel (20 March 2006)
- Dan Fandrich fixed two TFTP problems: Fixed a bug whereby a received file
whose length was a multiple of 512 bytes could have random garbage
appended. Also, stop processing TFTP packets which are too short to be
legal.
- Ilja van Sprundel reported a possible crash in the curl tool when using
"curl hostwithoutslash -d data -G"
Version 7.15.3 (20 March 2006)
Daniel (20 March 2006)
- VULNERABILITY reported to us by Ulf Harnhammar.
libcurl uses the given file part of a TFTP URL in a manner that allows a
malicious user to overflow a heap-based memory buffer due to the lack of
boundary check.
This overflow happens if you pass in a URL with a TFTP protocol prefix
("tftp://"), using a valid host and a path part that is longer than 512
bytes.
The affected flaw can be triggered by a redirect, if curl/libcurl is told to
follow redirects and an HTTP server points the client to a tftp URL with the
characteristics described above.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned the name
CVE-2006-1061 to this issue.
Daniel (16 March 2006)
- Tor Arntsen provided a RPM spec file for AIX Toolbox, that now is included
in the release archive.
