An issue in fetch_jpg() in xdrv_10_scripter.ino in Tasmota through 15.3.0.3 allows a remote attacker to cause heap buffer overflow. The Content-Length from a JPEG stream is stored in a uint16_t variable; values above 65535 wrap around, causing allocation of a smaller buffer than the data actually read.
