CVE-2017-8818 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Debian:12 curl to version 7.57.0-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream curl package and not the curl package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.
curl and libcurl before 7.57.0 on 32-bit platforms allow attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact because too little memory is allocated for interfacing to an SSL library.
