Debian 10205 Published by

Updated curl packages has been released for Debian 7 LTS



Package : curl
Version : 7.26.0-1+wheezy18+deb7u1
CVE ID : CVE-2017-7407

It was discovered that there was a buffer read overrun vulnerability in curl,
a tool for downloading files from the internet, etc.

If a "%" ended the --write-out parameter, the string's trailing NUL would be
skipped and memory past the end of the buffer could be accessed and potentially
displayed as part of the output.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", this issue has been fixed in curl version
7.26.0-1+wheezy18+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your curl packages.
