Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-3398-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'curl' package(s) announced via the DLA-3398-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'curl' package(s) announced via the DLA-3398-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Several security vulnerabilities have been found in cURL, an easy-to-use client-side URL transfer library. CVE-2023-27533 A vulnerability in input validation exists in curl during communication using the TELNET protocol may allow an attacker to pass on maliciously crafted user name and telnet options during server negotiation. The lack of proper input scrubbing allows an attacker to send content or perform option negotiation without the application's intent. This vulnerability could be exploited if an application allows user input, thereby enabling attackers to execute arbitrary code on the system. CVE-2023-27535 An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in libcurl in the FTP connection reuse feature that can result in wrong credentials being used during subsequent transfers. Previously created connections are kept in a connection pool for reuse if they match the current setup. However, certain FTP settings such as CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER, CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC, and CURLOPT_USE_SSL were not included in the configuration match checks, causing them to match too easily. This could lead to libcurl using the wrong credentials when performing a transfer, potentially allowing unauthorized access to sensitive information. CVE-2023-27536 An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in libcurl in the connection reuse feature which can reuse previously established connections with incorrect user permissions due to a failure to check for changes in the CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION option. This vulnerability affects krb5/kerberos/negotiate/GSSAPI transfers and could potentially result in unauthorized access to sensitive information. The safest option is to not reuse connections if the CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION option has been changed. CVE-2023-27538 An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in libcurl where it reuses a previously established SSH connection despite the fact that an SSH option was modified, which should have prevented reuse. libcurl maintains a pool of previously used connections to reuse them for subsequent transfers if the configurations match. However, two SSH settings were omitted from the configuration check, allowing them to match easily, potentially leading to the reuse of an inappropriate connection. For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 7.64.0-4+deb10u6. We recommend that you upgrade your curl packages.
