+Subject: [PATCH] Curl_urldecode: no peeking beyond end of input buffer
+
+Security problem: CVE-2013-2174
+
+If a program would give a string like "%" to curl_easy_unescape(), it
+would still consider the % as start of an encoded character. The
+function then not only read beyond the buffer but it would also deduct
+the *unsigned* counter variable for how many more bytes there's left to
+read in the buffer by two, making the counter wrap. Continuing this, the
+function would go on reading beyond the buffer and soon writing beyond
+the allocated target buffer...
+
