NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream curl package and not the curl package as distributed by Ubuntu.

URLs containing percent-encoded slashes (/ or \) can trick wcurl into saving the output file outside of the current directory without the user explicitly asking for it.

This flaw only affects the wcurl command line tool.
