DescriptionCVE.org

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.

AnalysisAI

curl's HTTP proxy connection reuse mechanism fails to validate credential changes, allowing an attacker to intercept or manipulate traffic by leveraging an existing proxy connection established with different authentication. This affects users whose applications reuse proxy connections across requests with varying credentials, enabling credential confusion attacks. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability, though a patch is available.

Technical ContextAI

Affects Curl. 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.

RemediationAI

A vendor patch is available — apply it immediately. Restrict network access to the affected service where possible.
