2) Security features bypass
EUVDB-ID: #VU70457
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-43551
CWE-ID:
CWE-254 - Security Features
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists in the way curl handles IDN characters in hostnames. The HSTS mechanism could be bypassed if the hostname in the given URL first uses IDN characters that get replaced to ASCII counterparts as part of the IDN conversion. Then in a subsequent request it does not detect the HSTS state and makes a clear text transfer.
