No description provided.

Issue acassen#960 identified that the buffer allocated for copying the
HTTP status code could overflow if the http response was corrupted.

This commit changes the way the status code is read, avoids copying
data, and also ensures that the status code is three digits long,
is non-negative and occurs on the first line of the response.

This issue has been fixed. Why NIST is refering to a NVD on this issue on 11/08 if this issue has been already fixed since 2.0.7. (the description is wrong : "through 2.0.8").
If you have the ability to close this CVE would you please help here ? Other CVE on follow links are open, and this issue is fixed too.

CVEs are used to track security issues. It doesn't matter if this has been fixed. I'll contact them and ask them to correct the version information
