+	  <p>CVE-2018-14618: NTLM password overflow via integer overflow</p>
+	  <p>The internal function Curl_ntlm_core_mk_nt_hash multiplies the length
+	    of the password by two (SUM) to figure out how large temporary storage
+	    area to allocate from the heap.</p>
+	  <p>The length value is then subsequently used to iterate over the
+	    password and generate output into the allocated storage buffer. On
+	    systems with a 32 bit size_t, the math to calculate SUM triggers an
+	    integer overflow when the password length exceeds 2GB (2^31 bytes).
+	    This integer overflow usually causes a very small buffer to actually
+	    get allocated instead of the intended very huge one, making the use of
+	    that buffer end up in a heap buffer overflow.</p>
+	  <p>This bug is almost identical to CVE-2017-8816.</p>
