RedHat: RHSA-2017-3075:01 Important: wget security update
Summary
The wget packages provide the GNU Wget file retrieval utility for HTTP,
HTTPS, and FTP protocols.
Security Fix(es):
* A stack-based and a heap-based buffer overflow flaws were found in wget
when processing chunked encoded HTTP responses. By tricking an unsuspecting
user into connecting to a malicious HTTP server, an attacker could exploit
these flaws to potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-13089,
CVE-2017-13090)
Red Hat would like to thank the GNU Wget project for reporting these
issues.
