mariadb: Arbitrary shell command execution via improper sanitization in CONNECT engine

A flaw was found in MariaDB server. When the CONNECT engine is installed and REST support is enabled on Windows, a user can exploit improper sanitization of the table HTTP attribute. This attribute is interpolated into the curl command line, allowing for arbitrary shell command execution on the...

curl: ssh_config_matches is dead code: unauthorized SSH key reuse

Summary libcurl's SSH connection-reuse guard sshconfigmatches — added for CVE-2022-27782 and reaffirmed by CVE-2023-27538 — is dead code in every release since 7.83.1. It compares sshc-rsa / sshc-rsapub between a new transfer "needle" and a pooled connection, but on both sides those pointers are...

curl: mbedTLS / wolfSSL / rustls backends silently skip hostname verification when CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER=0

Summary When an application sets CURLOPTSSLVERIFYPEER=0 while keeping CURLOPTSSLVERIFYHOST=2 the default, the mbedTLS, wolfSSL, and rustls TLS backends silently skip the hostname-vs-certificate check. The OpenSSL, GnuTLS, and Schannel backends correctly preserve hostname checking under the same...

libcurl 8.13.0 < 8.21.0 Use-After-Free in Socket Callback

The version of libcurl installed on the remote host is 8.13.0 prior to 8.21.0. It is, therefore, affected by a use-after-free vulnerability: - Calling curleasypause within the event-based CURLMOPTSOCKETFUNCTION callback triggers a use-after-free vulnerability. CVE-2026-9080 Note that Nessus has n...

Curl 8.16.0 < 8.21.0 WebSocket Auto-PONG Memory Exhaustion

The version of curl installed on the remote host is 8.16.0 prior to 8.21.0. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability: - Because curl lacks an upper bound on memory allocation for unacknowledged WebSocket frames, a malicious server can exhaust all available memory by floodin...

Curl 7.30.0 < 8.21.0 Wrong STARTTLS Connection Reuse

The version of curl installed on the remote host is 7.30.0 prior to 8.21.0. It is, therefore, affected by an improper certificate validation vulnerability: - A vulnerability exists where a new transfer that uses STARTTLS to upgrade the connection might reuse an existing live connection even thoug...

Curl 8.15.0 < 8.21.0 SASL Double-Free

The version of curl installed on the remote host is 8.15.0 prior to 8.21.0. It is, therefore, affected by a double-free vulnerability: - 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...

Curl 7.46.0 < 8.21.0 Trailing Dot Domain Super Cookie

The version of curl installed on the remote host is 7.46.0 prior to 8.21.0. It is, therefore, affected by a cookie injection vulnerability: - A flaw in curl's cookie parsing logic allows a malicious HTTP server to set super cookies that bypass the Public Suffix List check. CVE-2026-8924 Note that...

Curl 7.81.0 < 8.21.0 Proto-Default Skips SSH Verification

The version of curl installed on the remote host is 7.81.0 prior to 8.21.0. It is, therefore, affected by an improper host validation vulnerability: - When a user invokes curl using a schemeless URL combined with --proto-default sftp, a disconnect occurs that erroneously bypasses the initializati...

Curl 8.18.0 < 8.21.0 QUIC Zero-Length UDP Datagrams DoS

The version of curl installed on the remote host is 8.18.0 prior to 8.21.0. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability: - An issue in curl's QUIC UDP receive function allows a malicious HTTP/3 server to trigger a remote denial of service by continuously streaming empty...

Curl 8.11.1 < 8.21.0 Netrc Password Leak

The version of curl installed on the remote host is 8.11.1 prior to 8.21.0. It is, therefore, affected by a credential disclosure vulnerability: - When asking curl to use a .netrc file to find credentials and at the same time specifying a URL with a username, curl could wrongly get and use the...

Curl 8.11.0 < 8.21.0 HTTP/3 Early Data Information Disclosure

The version of curl installed on the remote host is 8.11.0 prior to 8.21.0. It is, therefore, affected by an information disclosure vulnerability: - When libcurl returns to a hostname with a cached SSL session and early data enabled, libcurl might send the request bytes before enforcing the...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in curl

When performing multi-threaded LDAPS transfers LDAP over TLS with libcurl, changing TLS options in one thread will inadvertently change them globally, and thus may also affect other concurrently running transfers. Disabling certificate verification for a specific transfer can unintentionally...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in curl

When performing TLS-related transfers using reused easy or multi-handles, and altering the CURLSSLOPTNOPARTIALCHAIN option, libcurl may accidentally reuse a CA store cached in memory, where the partial chain option is reversed. This goes against the user’s wishes and expectations. As a result,...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in curl

When an OAuth2 bearer token is used for an HTTPS transfer, and that transfer performs a cross-protocol redirect to a second URL that uses an IMAP, LDAP, POP3, or SMTP scheme, curl may incorrectly pass the bearer token to the new target host...

UBUNTU-CVE-2026-8458

libcurl might in some circumstances reuse the wrong connection when asked to do Negotiate-authenticated ones, even when they are set to use different 'services'. libcurl features a pool of recent connections so that subsequent requests can reuse an existing connection to avoid overhead. When...

UBUNTU-CVE-2026-12064

When a user invokes curl using a schemeless URL combined with --proto-default sftp or scp, a disconnect occurs between the tool layer and libcurl. The tool layer incorrectly infers the URL scheme, which erroneously bypasses the initialization of critical SSH security options like...

UBUNTU-CVE-2026-9080

Calling curleasypause within the event-based CURLMOPTSOCKETFUNCTION 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...
