+ <title>cURL: NTLM username stack overflow</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ cURL is vulnerable to a buffer overflow which could lead to the execution
+ of arbitrary code.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ cURL is a command line tool and library for transferring files via
+ many different protocols. It supports NTLM authentication to retrieve
+ files from Windows-based systems.
+ </p>

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ iDEFENSE reported that insufficient bounds checking on a memcpy()
+ of the supplied NTLM username can result in a stack overflow.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could setup a malicious server and entice an
+ user to connect to it using a cURL client, potentially leading to the
+ execution of arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running
+ cURL.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ Disable NTLM authentication by not using the --anyauth or --ntlm
+ options when using cURL (the command line version). Workarounds for
+ programs that use the cURL library depend on the configuration options
+ presented by those programs.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All cURL users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-misc/curl-7.15.0"</code>
+ </resolution>
