Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions curl (affected versions not specified)
Description The issue arises from the "globbing" function in curl that parses numerical ranges in URLs. If a user provides a carefully crafted or wrongly written URL, curl may read a byte beyond the end of the URL. This can lead to incorrect behavior instead of crashing, as the URL is stored in a heap-based buffer. An example of a URL that triggers this flaw is http://ur%20[0-60000000000000000000.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
