Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Security features bypass

EUVDB-ID: #VU70457

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-43551

CWE-ID: CWE-254 - Security Features

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists in the way curl handles IDN characters in hostnames. The HSTS mechanism could be bypassed if the hostname in the given URL first uses IDN characters that get replaced to ASCII counterparts as part of the IDN conversion. Then in a subsequent request it does not detect the HSTS state and makes a clear text transfer.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
