Description

curl vulnerabilities Paras Sethia discovered that curl could incorrectly re-use NTLM HTTP credentials when subsequently connecting to the same host over HTTP. (CVE-2015-3143) Hanno Böck discovered that curl incorrectly handled zero-length host names.

This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.10 and Ubuntu 15.04. (CVE-2015-3144) Hanno Böck discovered that curl incorrectly handled cookie path elements. If a user or automated system were tricked into parsing a specially crafted cookie, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause curl to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 14.10 and Ubuntu 15.04. (CVE-2015-3145) Isaac Boukris discovered that when using Negotiate authenticated connections, curl could incorrectly authenticate the entire connection and not just specific HTTP requests.
