Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7162-1
December 16, 2024

curl vulnerability
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 24.10
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Summary:

curl could be made to expose sensitive information.

Software Description:
- curl: HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP client and client libraries

Details:

Harry Sintonen discovered that curl incorrectly handled credentials from
.netrc files when following HTTP redirects. In certain configurations, the
password for the first host could be leaked to the followed-to host,
contrary to expectations.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 24.10
curl 8.9.1-2ubuntu2.2
libcurl3t64-gnutls 8.9.1-2ubuntu2.2
libcurl4t64 8.9.1-2ubuntu2.2

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
curl 8.5.0-2ubuntu10.6
libcurl3t64-gnutls 8.5.0-2ubuntu10.6
libcurl4t64 8.5.0-2ubuntu10.6

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
curl 7.81.0-1ubuntu1.20
libcurl3-gnutls 7.81.0-1ubuntu1.20
libcurl3-nss 7.81.0-1ubuntu1.20
libcurl4 7.81.0-1ubuntu1.20

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
curl 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.25
libcurl3-gnutls 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.25
libcurl3-nss 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.25
libcurl4 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.25

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
