REDHAT-BUG-2461204: Medium severity curl libcurl vulnerability

Published Apr 23, 2026
·
Updated

A flaw was found in libcurl. An application using libcurl that performs an authenticated HTTP(S) request after a Negotiate-authenticated one to the same host may incorrectly reuse the previous connection. This authentication bypass vulnerability allows the second request to be sent over a connection authenticated with different credentials, potentially leading to unauthorized access or information disclosure.
