CVE-2012-0036

Publication date 24 January 2012

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

curl and libcurl 7.2x before 7.24.0 do not properly consider special characters during extraction of a pathname from a URL, which allows remote attackers to conduct data-injection attacks via a crafted URL, as demonstrated by a CRLF injection attack on the (1) IMAP, (2) POP3, or (3) SMTP protocol.
