Security advisory: curl

[Yaakov S (Cygwin Ports)]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

cURL is vulnerable to a buffer overflow which could lead to the
execution of arbitrary code.

Solution:  upgrade to 7.15.0.

Workaround until solved:
Disable NTLM authentication by not using the --anyauth or --ntlm
options when using cURL (the command line version). Workarounds for
programs that use the cURL library depend on the configuration options
presented by those programs.
