Input validation error in cURL - CVE-2023-27534

Vulnerability identifier: #VU73827

CSH Severity: Low

CVSS v4: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27534

CWE-ID: CWE-20

Exploitation vector: Remote access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in the SFTP support when handling the tilde "~" character in the filepath. cURL will replace the tilde character to the current user's home directory and can reveal otherwise restricted files.
