curl vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

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

- Ubuntu 25.10
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in curl.

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

Details:

Zhicheng Chen discovered that curl could incorrectly reuse the wrong
connection for Negotiate-authenticated HTTP or HTTPS requests. This could
result in the use of credentials from a different connection, contrary to
expectations. (CVE-2026-1965)

It was discovered that curl incorrectly leaked OAuth2 bearer tokens when
following a redirect. This could result in tokens being sent to the wrong
host, contrary to expectations. (CVE-2026-3783)

Muhamad Arga Reksapati discovered that curl incorrectly reused existing
HTTP proxy connections even if the request used different credentials. This
could result in the use of incorrect credentials, contrary to expectations.
(CVE-2026-3784)

Daniel Wade discovered that curl incorrectly handled certain memory
operations when doing a second SMB request to the same host. An attacker
could use this issue to cause curl to crash, resulting in a denial of
service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected
Ubuntu 25.10. (CVE-2026-3805)

Yihang Zhou discovered that curl incorrectly reused .netrc file credentials
when following redirects. This could result in the use of credentials for
a different host, contrary to expectations. This issue only affected Ubuntu
22.04 LTS and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. (CVE-2025-0167)
