CVE-2019-3823 Information
Description
libcurl versions from 7.34.0 to before 7.64.0 are vulnerable to a heap out-of-bounds read in the code handling the end-of-response for SMTP. If the buffer passed to smtp_endofresp() isn’t NUL terminated and contains no character ending the parsed number and len is set to 5 then the strtol() call reads beyond the allocated buffer. The read contents will not be returned to the caller.
