Descriptions

cURL and libcurl 7.40.0 through 7.42.1 send the HTTP Basic authentication credentials for a previous connection when reusing a reset (curl_easy_reset) connection handle to send a request to the same host name, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.

cURL y libcurl 7.40.0 hasta la versión 7.42.1 mandan las credenciales de autenticación HTTP Basic de una conexión previa cuando se reutiliza en una conexión de reinicio (curl_easy_reset) usada para enviar una petición al mismo nombre de anfitrión, lo que permite a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible a través de vectores no especificados.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in cURL, the worst of which can allow remote attackers to cause Denial of Service condition. Versions less than 7.43.0 are affected.
