DescriptionThe 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.

As a result, libcurl can send authentication string from one resource to another, exposing credentials to a third-party. MitigationInstall update from vendor's website.
