Daniel (20 March 2006)
- Dan Fandrich fixed two TFTP problems: Fixed a bug whereby a received file
  whose length was a multiple of 512 bytes could have random garbage
  appended. Also, stop processing TFTP packets which are too short to be
  legal.

- Ilja van Sprundel reported a possible crash in the curl tool when using
  "curl hostwithoutslash -d data -G"

Version 7.15.3 (20 March 2006)

Daniel (20 March 2006)
- VULNERABILITY reported to us by Ulf Harnhammar.

  libcurl uses the given file part of a TFTP URL in a manner that allows a
  malicious user to overflow a heap-based memory buffer due to the lack of
  boundary check.

  This overflow happens if you pass in a URL with a TFTP protocol prefix
  ("tftp://"), using a valid host and a path part that is longer than 512
  bytes.

  The affected flaw can be triggered by a redirect, if curl/libcurl is told to
  follow redirects and an HTTP server points the client to a tftp URL with the
  characteristics described above.

  The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned the name
  CVE-2006-1061 to this issue.

Daniel (16 March 2006)
- Tor Arntsen provided a RPM spec file for AIX Toolbox, that now is included
  in the release archive.
