Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2024.0391
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2024-0391)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'curl' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0391 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'curl' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0391 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
When asked to both use a .netrc file for credentials and to follow HTTP
redirects, curl could leak the password used for the first host to the
followed-to host under certain circumstances.
This flaw only manifests itself if the netrc file has an entry that
matches the redirect target hostname but the entry either omits just the
password or omits both login and password.
This update fixes this logic to avoid sending a password to the wrong
host.

Affected Software/OS:
'curl' package(s) on Mageia 9.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.0
