CVE-2025-0725 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Red Hat security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for RHEL:7.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libcurl package and not the libcurl package as distributed by RHEL.
When libcurl is asked to perform automatic gzip decompression of
content-encoded HTTP responses with the CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING option,
using zlib 1.2.0.3 or older, an attacker-controlled integer overflow would
make libcurl perform a buffer overflow.
