Detail

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 11.10 - Ubuntu 11.04 - Ubuntu 10.10

Summary:

curl could be tricked into injecting arbitrary data if it handled a malicious URL.

Software Description: - curl: HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP client and client libraries

Details:

Dan Fandrich discovered that curl incorrectly handled URLs containing embedded or percent-encoded control characters. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted URL, arbitrary data could be injected.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 11.10:
libcurl3 7.21.6-3ubuntu3.2
libcurl3-gnutls 7.21.6-3ubuntu3.2
libcurl3-nss 7.21.6-3ubuntu3.2

Ubuntu 11.04:
libcurl3 7.21.3-1ubuntu1.5
libcurl3-gnutls 7.21.3-1ubuntu1.5
libcurl3-nss 7.21.3-1ubuntu1.5

Ubuntu 10.10:
libcurl3 7.21.0-1ubuntu1.3
libcurl3-gnutls 7.21.0-1ubuntu1.3

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
