CVE-2018-1000007
Published on: 01/24/2018 12:00:00 AM UTC
Last Modified on: 06/13/2022 07:10:00 PM UTC
Certain versions of Ubuntu Linux from Canonical contain the following vulnerability:
libcurl 7.1 through 7.57.0 might accidentally leak authentication data to third parties. When asked to send custom headers in its HTTP requests, libcurl will send that set of headers first to the host in the initial URL but also, if asked to follow redirects and a 30X HTTP response code is returned, to the host mentioned in URL in the `Location:` response header value. Sending the same set of headers to subsequent hosts is in particular a problem for applications that pass on custom `Authorization:` headers, as this header often contains privacy sensitive information or data that could allow others to impersonate the libcurl-using client's request.
