curl may expose proxy credentials via reused connection

published 7 months ago
Summary

Versions of curl before 8.11.1-6 can reuse an existing proxy link even when a new request provides different login details. This means the new request might be sent with the previous credentials, potentially revealing them or allowing access that should be denied. Upgrade curl to version 8.11.1-6 or later, or avoid changing proxy credentials on the same connection until the update is applied.

What to do
  • Update azure curl to version 8.11.1-6.

Original advisory text
CVE-2026-3784 affecting package curl for versions less than 8.11.1-6
curl would wrongly reuse an existing HTTP proxy connection doing CONNECT to a
server, even if the new request uses different credentials for the HTTP proxy.
The proper behavior is to create or use a separate connection.
