Description

A deeply nested multipart MIME structure constructed via the public API causes a stack overflow in libcurl during normal cleanup operations. An excessive recursion depth within `curl_mime_free` leads to unbounded stack frame allocation during structure traversal, ultimately crashing the host process.
