Name: curl
CVEs: CVE-2023-46218, CVE-2023-46219
CVSSs: 6.5, 5.3
Action Needed: update to >= 8.5.0

Summary:

  • CVE-2023-46218: This flaw allows a malicious HTTP server to set "super cookies" in curl that are then passed back to more origins than what is otherwise allowed or possible. This allows a site to set cookies that then would get sent to different and unrelated sites and domains. It could do this by exploiting a mixed case flaw in curl's function that verifies a given cookie domain against the Public Suffix List (PSL). For example a cookie could be set with domain=co.UK when the URL used a lower case hostname curl.co.uk, even though co.uk is listed as a PSL domain.
  • CVE-2023-46219: When saving HSTS data to an excessively long file name, curl could end up removing all contents, making subsequent requests using that file unaware of the HSTS status they should otherwise use.
