CVSS v3.1 |
| A use-after-free vulnerability exists in libcurl when an application
configures an HTTP/2 stream-dependency tree via `CURLOPT_STREAM_DEPENDS` or
`CURLOPT_STREAM_DEPENDS_E`, subsequently invokes `curl_easy_reset()`, and
finally terminates the handle with `curl_easy_cleanup()`. During this final
cleanup phase, libcurl attempts to access and modify an internal structure
that was already freed during the reset operation. |
| libcurl keeps previously used connections in a connection pool for subsequent
transfers to reuse if one of them matches the setup.
An easy handle that first uses default native CA trust can continue trusting
the native platform store after the application switches that same handle to
custom CA material for a later transfer. |
| The curl logic that works with SASL authentication could end up cleaning up
the GSASL context *twice* without clearing the pointer in between, making it
`free()` the same pointer twice. |
| An issue in curl’s QUIC UDP receive function allows a malicious HTTP/3 server
to trigger a remote denial of service against a curl or libcurl client.
Because the helper function discards zero-length UDP datagrams before counting
them toward the per-call packet budget, a connected QUIC peer can continuously
stream empty datagrams to indefinitely stall the client. |
| By default, curl automatically responds to WebSocket PING frames. Because curl
lacks an upper bound on memory allocation for unacknowledged frames, a
malicious server can exhaust all available memory by flooding curl with rapid,
sequential PING messages. |
| When reusing a libcurl handle for sequential transfers driven by
environment-variable proxy configuration, libcurl fails to clear the proxy
authentication state between requests. Specifically, if the initial transfer
authenticates against `proxyA` using Digest auth, a subsequent transfer routed
through `proxyB` erroneously leaks the `Proxy-Authorization:` header intended
solely for `proxyA`. |
| Calling `curl_easy_pause()` within the event-based `CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION`
callback triggers a use-after-free vulnerability, where libcurl attempts to
store a flag using a dangling struct pointer immediately after that pointer's
memory has been freed. |
| A vulnerability exists where a new transfer that uses STARTTLS to upgrade the
connection might reuse an existing live connection even though the TLS
configuration mismatches so it should not. |
| libcurl had a flaw that when instructed to clear proxy authentication
credentials which made it not do so, leaving the old credentials around to get
used for subsequent transfers that should not know nor use them. |
| Successfully using libcurl to do a transfer over a specific HTTP proxy
(`proxyA`) with **Digest** authentication and then changing the proxy host to
a second one (`proxyB`) for a second transfer, reusing the same handle, makes
libcurl wrongly pass on the `Proxy-Authorization:` header field meant for
`proxyA`, to `proxyB`. |
| When curl is told to use the Certificate Status Request TLS extension, often
referred to as *OCSP stapling*, to verify that the server certificate is
valid, it fails to detect OCSP problems and instead wrongly consider the
response as fine. |
| A flaw was found in curl. A remote attacker could exploit this by initiating an unencrypted connection (via IMAP, SMTP, or POP3) and then making a subsequent request to the same host that requires Transport Layer Security (TLS). Due to incorrect connection reuse, the subsequent request would bypass the TLS requirement, leading to the transmission of sensitive information in cleartext. This vulnerability, categorized as Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information (CWE-319), results in information disclosure. |
| A flaw was found in libcurl. An application using libcurl that performs an authenticated HTTP(S) request after a Negotiate-authenticated one to the same host may incorrectly reuse the previous connection. This authentication bypass vulnerability allows the second request to be sent over a connection authenticated with different credentials, potentially leading to unauthorized access or information disclosure. |
| A flaw was found in libcurl. Due to a logical error in the connection reuse mechanism for SMB (Server Message Block) transfers, libcurl might reuse an existing SMB connection with a different share than intended. This vulnerability, categorized as CWE-488 (Exposure of Data Element to Wrong Session), could lead to the download of an incorrect file or the upload of a file to an unintended location when an application uses libcurl for SMB transfers. |
| A flaw was found in curl. When curl is configured to use distinct proxies for different URL schemes, a redirect from a URL using an authenticated proxy to one using an unauthenticated proxy can inadvertently expose the initial proxy's credentials. This improper credential management (CWE-522) may allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access or information by intercepting these disclosed credentials. |
| A flaw was found in libcurl. This vulnerability allows for information disclosure when a custom `Host:` header is used in an initial HTTP request, and a subsequent request reuses the same connection without specifying a new `Host:` header. This can lead to libcurl incorrectly sending cookies intended for the first host to the second host, resulting in a cookie leak. This issue is categorized as an Origin Validation Error (CWE-346). Exploitation typically requires specific debugging configurations. |
| A flaw was found in libcurl. When configured to use a .netrc file for credentials and follow HTTP redirects, libcurl can inadvertently send the password from the initial connection to the redirected host. This sensitive information disclosure occurs when both the original and redirect URLs use clear text HTTP, are performed over the same HTTP proxy, and the same connection is reused. This vulnerability, categorized as an Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor (CWE-200), could allow an attacker to obtain user credentials. |
| lib/ssluse.c in cURL and libcurl 7.4 through 7.19.5, when OpenSSL is used, does not properly handle a '\0' character in a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) field of an X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof arbitrary SSL servers via a crafted certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority, a related issue to CVE-2009-2408. |
| The redirect implementation in curl and libcurl 5.11 through 7.19.3, when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is enabled, accepts arbitrary Location values, which might allow remote HTTP servers to (1) trigger arbitrary requests to intranet servers, (2) read or overwrite arbitrary files via a redirect to a file: URL, or (3) execute arbitrary commands via a redirect to an scp: URL. |
| Stack-based buffer overflow in the ntlm_output function in http-ntlm.c for (1) wget 1.10, (2) curl 7.13.2, and (3) libcurl 7.13.2, and other products that use libcurl, when NTLM authentication is enabled, allows remote servers to execute arbitrary code via a long NTLM username. |
