CVE-2024-6874

Description

libcurl\'s URL API function [curl_url_get()](https://curl.se/libcurl/c/curl_url_get.html) offers punycode conversions, to and from IDN. Asking to convert a name that is exactly 256 bytes, libcurl ends up reading outside of a stack based buffer when built to use the *macidn* IDN backend. The conversion function then fills up the provided buffer exactly - but does not null terminate the string. This flaw can lead to stack contents accidently getting returned as part of the converted string.

Priority: LOW
CVSS v3: 4.3
Component: curl
Publish Date: Jul 24, 2024
Related ID: --
CVSS v2: MEDIUM
Modified Date: Jul 24, 2024
