cURL libcurl is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the tftpreceivepacket function. By sending specially-crafted request containing an OACK without the BLKSIZE option, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Double-free vulnerability in the FTP-kerberos code in cURL 7.52.0 to 7.65.3.
A read-after-free vulnerability was discovered in Apache httpd, in modhttp2. A specially crafted http/2 client session could cause the server to read memory that was previously freed during connection shutdown, potentially leading to a crash.

RSA BSAFE Micro Edition Suite, versions prior to 4.0.11 (in 4.0.x) and prior to 4.1.6 (in 4.1.x), and RSA BSAFE Crypto-C Micro Edition, version prior to 4.0.5.3 (in 4.0.x) contain a Buffer Over-Read vulnerability when parsing ASN.1 data. A remote attacker could use maliciously constructed ASN.1 data that would result in such issue.
curl can be tricked into reading data beyond the end of a heap based buffer used to store downloaded content.
When servers send RTSP responses back to curl, the data starts out with a set of headers. curl parses that data to separate it into a number of headers to deal with those appropriately and to find the end of the headers that signal the start of the "body" part.
The function that splits up the response into headers is called Curlhttpreadwriteheaders() and in situations where it can't find a single header in the buffer, it might end up leaving a pointer pointing into the buffer instead of to the start of the buffer which then later on may lead to an out of buffer read when code assumes that pointer points to a full buffer size worth of memory to use.
This could potentially lead to information leakage but most likely a crash/denial of service for applications if a server triggers this flaw.

Affected versions: curl 7.20.0 to and including curl 7.59.0 Not affected versions: curl < 7.20.0 and curl >= 7.60.0
Pivotal Spring Framework could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by the exposure of STOMP over WebSocket endpoints with a STOMP broker through the spring-messaging module. By sending a specially-crafted message, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
A buffer over-read exists in curl 7.20.0 to and including curl 7.58.0 in the RTSP+RTP handling code that allows an attacker to cause a denial of service or information leakage
A buffer overflow exists in curl 7.12.3 to and including curl 7.58.0 in the FTP URL handling that allows an attacker to cause a denial of service or worse.
