Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-295.

Summary

With the wolfSSL backend, when CA caching is enabled and an `CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION` callback replaces the trust store, libcurl can silently reinstall the cached store after the callback returns. A certificate trusted by the cached store but rejected by the callback-selected store is then incorrectly accepted.
