   An update that fixes two vulnerabilities is now available.

Description:


   This update for curl fixes the following issues:

   These security issues were fixed:

   - CVE-2016-9586: libcurl printf floating point buffer overflow
     (bsc#1015332)
   - CVE-2017-7407: The ourWriteOut function in tool_writeout.c in curl might
     have allowed physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive
     information from process memory in opportunistic circumstances by
     reading a workstation screen during use of a --write-out argument ending
     in a '%' character, which lead to a heap-based buffer over-read
     (bsc#1032309).
