CVE-2018-1000122

CVSS v3.1

9.1

Critical

VectorAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: curl versions 7.20.0 through 7.58.0
Description: A buffer over-read issue exists in the RTSP+RTP handling code, allowing an attacker to cause a denial of service or information leakage. When transferring an RTSP URL, the software can calculate a wrong data length to copy from the read buffer, leading to a memcpy() call that copies data from the heap following the buffer. This could result in information leakage or a denial of service for the application if the server offering the RTSP data can trigger this issue.
Recommendations: For curl versions 7.20.0 through 7.58.0, update to a version outside of this range to resolve the issue. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
