Zhaoyang Wu discovered that cURL, an URL transfer library, contains a buffer overflow in the NTLM authentication code triggered by passwords that exceed 2GB in length on 32bit systems.



For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 7.26.0-1+wheezy25+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your curl packages.
