CVE-2015-3144 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Debian:13
curl
to version 7.42.0-1 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:13
relevant fixed versions and status.
The fix_hostname function in cURL and libcurl 7.37.0 through 7.41.0 does not properly calculate an index, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read or write and crash) or possibly have other unspecified impact via a zero-length host name, as demonstrated by "http://:80" and ":80."
