Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream curl package and not the curl package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Curl versions 7.14.1 through 7.61.1 are vulnerable to a heap-based buffer over-read in the tool_msgs.c:voutf() function that may result in information exposure and denial of service.
