Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Incorrect Implementation of Authentication Algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-27782)

CWE-ID: CWE-303 - Incorrect Implementation of Authentication Algorithm

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to the way libcurl handles previously used connections in a connection pool for subsequent transfers. Several TLS and SSH settings were left out from the configuration match checks, resulting in erroneous matches for different resources. As a result, libcurl can send authentication string from one resource to another, exposing credentials to a third-party.
