From 25089c2c69028f0549facf93f7bdbf7344277f09 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Stenberg Date: Sun, 19 May 2013 23:24:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Curl_urldecode: no peeking beyond end of input buffer Security problem: CVE-2013-2174 If a program would give a string like "%FF" to curl_easy_unescape() but ask for it to decode only the first byte, it would still parse and decode the full hex sequence. The function then not only read beyond the allowed buffer but it would also deduct the *unsigned* counter variable for how many more bytes there's left to read in the buffer by two, making the counter wrap. Continuing this, the function would go on reading beyond the buffer and soon writing beyond the allocated target buffer...
