Description

cURL and libcurl 7.10.6 through 7.41.0 do not properly re-use authenticated Negotiate connections, which allows remote attackers to connect as other users via a request.

Solution(s)

  • oracle-linux-upgrade-curl
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-libcurl
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-libcurl-devel

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
