Security Fix(es):

* Multiple integer overflow flaws leading to heap-based buffer overflows
were found in the way curl handled escaping and unescaping of data. An
attacker could potentially use these flaws to crash an application using
libcurl by sending a specially crafted input to the affected libcurl
functions. (CVE-2016-7167)
