Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA and Red Hat. Impact type from CWE-201.

Summary

Affected are curl releases including 8.22.0, 8.21.0 and 8.20.0, back to 7.10.8. An HTTP proxy can make libcurl send the origin's credentials to the proxy itself (CWE-201). A proxy that answers a CONNECT request with 401 WWW-Authenticate instead of 407 Proxy-Authenticate triggers this, and a remote attacker needs no privileges or user interaction. CISA SSVC rates exploitation as proof of concept.

Written with Claude Haiku 5.5 from the sources below · 2026-11-07

Description from the CNA

An HTTP proxy can trick libcurl into sending the origin's credentials (Basic password, or a Negotiate/Kerberos ticket) to the proxy itself, by answering the `CONNECT` tunnel request with 401 `WWW-Authenticate:` instead of the expected 407 `Proxy-Authenticate:`.
