credentials not-checked for proxy connection reuse","description":"libcurl reuses NTLM-authenticated proxy connections without properly making\nsure that the connection was authenticated with the same credentials as set\nfor this transfer.\n\nlibcurl maintains a pool of connections after a transfer has completed. The\npool of connections is then gone through when a new transfer is requested and\nif there is a live connection available that can be reused, it is preferred\ninstead of creating a new one.\n\nSince NTLM-based authentication is *connection oriented* instead of *request\noriented* as other HTTP based authentication, it is important that only\nconnections that have been authenticated with the correct username + password\nare reused. This was done properly for server connections already, but libcurl\nfailed to do it properly for proxy connections using NTLM.\n\nA libcurl application can easily switch user credentials used for a proxy\nconnection between two requests, and that subsequent transfer then MUST make\nlibcurl use another connection. libcurl previously failed to do so.\n\nThe effects of this flaw, is that the application could be reusing a proxy\nconnection using the previously used credentials and thus it could be given to\nor prevented access from resources that it was not intended to.\n\nThis problem is similar to\n[CVE-2014-0015](https://curl.se/docs/CVE-2014-0015.html), which was for\ndirect server connections while this is for proxy connections.","status":"published","published":"2016-01-27T08:00:00Z","modified":"2026-10-24T23:17:46Z","updated_at":"2026-11-02T15:43:55.669514Z"},{"id":"DSA-3455-1","title":"curl - security update","status":"published","published":"2016-01-27T00:00:00Z","modified":"2026-03-09T01:20:33.227127Z","updated_at":"2026-11-02T15:46:16.199525Z"},{"id":"MGASA-2016-0050","title":"Updated curl packages fix security vulnerability","description":"libcurl before 7.47.0 will reuse NTLM-authenticated proxy connections\nwithout properly making sure that the connection was authenticated with\nthe same credentials as set for this transfer.

These can be reenabled\n    if required by old legacy software using the environment variable\n    'OPENSSL_ALLOW_EXPORT'.\n\n- CVE-2016-0705 (bnc#968047):\n  A double free() bug in the DSA ASN1 parser code was fixed that could\n  be abused to facilitate a denial-of-service attack.\n\n- CVE-2016-0797 (bnc#968048):\n  The BN_hex2bn() and BN_dec2bn() functions had a bug that could result\n  in an attempt to de-reference a NULL pointer leading to crashes.\n  This could have security consequences if these functions were ever\n  called by user applications with large untrusted hex/decimal data. Also,\n  internal usage of these functions in OpenSSL uses data from config files\n  or application command line arguments. If user developed applications\n  generated config file data based on untrusted data, then this could\n  have had security consequences as well.\n\n- CVE-2016-0799 (bnc#968374)\n  On many 64 bit systems, the internal fmtstr() and doapr_outch()\n  functions could miscalculate the length of a string and attempt to\n  access out-of-bounds memory locations. These problems could have\n  enabled attacks where large amounts of untrusted data is passed to\n  the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions in\n  this way then they could have been vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses\n  these functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1\n  data. Therefore applications that print this data could have been\n  vulnerable if the data is from untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line\n  applications could also have been vulnerable when they print out ASN.1\n  data, or if untrusted data is passed as command line arguments. Libssl\n  is not considered directly vulnerable.\n\n- CVE-2015-3197 (bsc#963415):\n  The SSLv2 protocol did not block disabled ciphers.\n\nNote that the March 1st 2016 release also references following CVEs\nthat were fixed by us with CVE-2015-0293 in 2015:\n\n- CVE-2016-0703 (bsc#968051): This issue only affected versions of\n  OpenSSL prior to March 19th 2015 at which time the code was refactored\n  to address vulnerability CVE-2015-0293. It would have made the above\n  'DROWN' attack much easier.\n- CVE-2016-0704 (bsc#968053): 'Bleichenbacher oracle in SSLv2'\n  This issue only affected versions of OpenSSL prior to March 19th\n  2015 at which time the code was refactored to address vulnerability\n  CVE-2015-0293. It would have made the above 'DROWN' attack much easier.\n\nopenssl non-security bugs fixed:\n\n- Avoid running OPENSSL_config twice. This avoids breaking\n  engine loading and also fixes a memory leak in libssl.
