NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rh-dotnet20-curl package and not the rh-dotnet20-curl package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

The NTLM authentication feature in curl and libcurl before 7.57.0 on 32-bit platforms allows attackers to cause a denial of service (integer overflow and resultant buffer overflow, and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving long user and password fields.
