Title: curl vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in curl.
It was discovered that curl incorrectly reused client certificates when
built with NSS. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to hijack
the authentication of a TLS connection. (CVE-2016-7141)
Nguyen Vu Hoang discovered that curl incorrectly handled escaping certain
strings. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause curl to
crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2016-7167)
It was discovered that curl incorrectly handled storing cookies. A remote
attacker could possibly use this issue to inject cookies for arbitrary
domains in the cookie jar. (CVE-2016-8615)

CVE-2016-8620 curl: Glob parser write/read out of bounds
The curl tool's "globbing" feature allows a user to specify a numerical range
through which curl will iterate. It is typically specified as [1-5],
specifying the first and the last numbers in the range. Or with [a-z], using
letters.
1. The curl code for parsing the second *unsigned* number did not check for a
leading minus character, which allowed a user to specify `[1--1]` with no
complaints and have the latter `-1` number get turned into the largest
unsigned long value the system can handle. This would ultimately cause curl to
write outside the dedicated malloced buffer after no less than 100,000
iterations, since it would have room for 5 digits but not 6.
2. When the range is specified with letters, and the ending letter is lef
