CVE-2018-1000300 created at 25 Sep 2019 19:31:40
Severity
+ Critical
Remote
+ Remote
Type
+ Arbitrary code execution
Description
+ curl >= 7.54.1 and < 7.60.0 might overflow a heap based memory buffer when closing down an FTP connection with very long server command replies.
+ When doing FTP transfers, curl keeps a spare "closure handle" around internally that will be used when an FTP connection gets shut down since the original curl easy handle is then already removed. FTP server response data that gets cached from the original transfer might then be larger than the default buffer size (16 KB) allocated in the "closure handle", which can lead to a buffer overwrite. The contents and size of that overwrite is controllable by the server.
