Detail

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in libcURL and cURL 7.12.1, and possibly other versions, allow remote malicious web servers to execute arbitrary code via base64 encoded replies that exceed the intended buffer lengths when decoded, which is not properly handled by (1) the Curl_input_ntlm function in http_ntlm.c during NTLM authentication or (2) the Curl_krb_kauth and krb4_auth functions in krb4.c during Kerberos authentication.

Id Description
14034 cURL/libcURL Kerberos Authentication Multiple Function Overflows

A remote overflow exists in cURL. cURL fails to verify the buffer lenght of base64 decoded values in Curl_krb_kauth and krb4_auth functions in Kerberos authentication resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker can cause the execution of arbitrary code resulting in a loss of integrity.
