CVE-2023-27536 (GCVE-0-2023-27536)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2023-03-30 00:00 – Updated: 2025-02-14 15:39
VLAI
Summary
An authentication bypass vulnerability exists libcurl <8.0.0 in the connection reuse feature which can reuse previously established connections with incorrect user permissions due to a failure to check for changes in the CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION option. This vulnerability affects krb5/kerberos/negotiate/GSSAPI transfers and could potentially result in unauthorized access to sensitive information. The safest option is to not reuse connections if the CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION option has been changed.
