"This flaw allows a malicious HTTP server to set super cookies in
curl that are then passed back to more origins than what is otherwise
allowed or possible. This allows a site to set cookies that then would
get sent to different and unrelated sites and domains. It could do
this by exploiting a mixed case flaw in curl's function that verifies
a given cookie domain against the Public Suffix List (PSL). For
example a cookie could be set with `domain=co.UK` when the URL used a
lower case hostname `curl.co.uk`, even though `co.uk` is listed as a
PSL domain.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
