Descriptions

curl before version 7.52.1 is vulnerable to an uninitialized random in libcurl's internal function that returns a good 32bit random value. Having a weak or virtually non-existent random value makes the operations that use it vulnerable.

curl, en versiones anteriores a la 7.52.1, es vulnerable a un valor aleatorio no inicializado en la función interna de libcurl que devuelve un valor aleatorio bueno de 32 bits. Tener un valor aleatorio débil o virtualmente inexistente hace que las operaciones que lo usan sean vulnerables.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in cURL, the worst of which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Versions less than 7.52.1 are affected.
