The latest releases for openSUSE address significant vulnerabilities found in curl. It's crucial that you update your system to maintain security integrity.

and sets the 'CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY' option, might in rare circumstances

experience that when subsequently using the setup connect-only transfer,

libcurl will pick and use the wrong connection and instead pick another

one the application has created since then. [bsc#1175109, CVE-2020-8231]
