Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2015-098 - Paras Sethia discovered that libcurl would sometimes mix up multiple HTTP and HTTPS connections with NTLM authentication to the same server, sending requests for one user over the connection authenticated as a different user. libcurl can in some circumstances re-use the wrong connection when asked to do transfers using other protocols than HTTP and FTP, causing a transfer that was initiated by an application to wrongfully re-use an existing connection to the same server that was authenticated using different credentials. Various other issues were also addressed.

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2014-110 - Paras Sethia discovered that libcurl would sometimes mix up multiple HTTP and HTTPS connections with NTLM authentication to the same server, sending requests for one user over the connection authenticated as a different user. libcurl can in some circumstances re-use the wrong connection when asked to do transfers using other protocols than HTTP and FTP, causing a transfer that was initiated by an application to wrongfully re-use an existing connection to the same server that was authenticated using different credentials. libcurl incorrectly validates wildcard SSL certificates containing literal IP addresses, so under certain conditions, it would allow and use a wildcard match specified in the CN field, allowing a malicious server to participate in a MITM attack or just fool users into believing that it is a legitimate site.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0561-01 - cURL provides the libcurl library and a command line tool for downloading files from servers using various protocols, including HTTP, FTP, and LDAP. It was found that libcurl could incorrectly reuse existing connections for requests that should have used different or no authentication credentials, when using one of the following protocols: HTTP with NTLM authentication, LDAP, SCP, or SFTP. If an application using the libcurl library connected to a remote server with certain authentication credentials, this flaw could cause other requests to use those same credentials.

Ubuntu Security Notice 2167-1 - Steve Holme discovered that libcurl incorrectly reused wrong connections when using protocols other than HTTP and FTP. This could lead to the use of unintended credentials, possibly exposing sensitive information. Richard Moore discovered that libcurl incorrectly validated wildcard SSL certificates that contain literal IP addresses. An attacker could possibly exploit this to perform a man in the middle attack to view sensitive information or alter encrypted communications. Various other issues were also addressed.
