Critical (9.8) in haxx. EPSS 3.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

curl and libcurl before 7.57.0 on 32-bit platforms allow attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact because too little memory is allocated for interfacing to an SSL library.
