Summary
curl vulnerabilities
Details

Axel Chong discovered that curl incorrectly handled percent-encoded URL separators. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to trick curl into using the wrong URL and bypass certain checks or filters. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2022-27780)

Florian Kohnhuser discovered that curl incorrectly handled returning a TLS server's certificate chain details. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause curl to stop responding, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2022-27781)

Harry Sintonen discovered that curl incorrectly reused a previous connection when certain options had been changed, contrary to expectations. (CVE-2022-27782)
