TITLE

HAXX libcurl Information disclosure vulnerability

DESCRIPTION

A malicious server can use the FTP PASV response to trick curl 7.73.0 and earlier into connecting back to a given IP address and port, and this way potentially make curl extract information about services that are otherwise private and not disclosed, for example doing port scanning and service banner extractions. HAXX Haxx curl is a set of file transfer tools that use the URL syntax to work under the command line of the Swedish Haxx (HAXX) company. The tool supports file upload and download and includes a libcurl (client URL transfer library) for program development. Attackers can use this vulnerability to bypass data access restrictions and obtain sensitive information through curl's FTP PASV Responses. CVE-2020-8177 sn reported that curl could be tricked by a malicious server into overwriting a local file when using th -J (--remote-header-name) and -i (--include) options in the same command line. CVE-2020-8231 Marc Aldorasi reported that libcurl might use the wrong connection when an application using libcurl's multi API sets the option CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY, which could lead to information leaks. CVE-2020-8285 xnynx reported that libcurl could run out of stack space when using tha FTP wildcard matching functionality (CURLOPT_CHUNK_BGN_FUNCTION). CVE-2020-8286 It was reported that libcurl didn't verify that an OCSP response actually matches the certificate it is intended to. CVE-2021-22876 Viktor Szakats reported that libcurl does not strip off user credentials from the URL when automatically populating the Referer HTTP request header field in outgoing HTTP requests. CVE-2021-22890 Mingtao Yang reported that, when using an HTTPS proxy and TLS 1.3, libcurl could confuse session tickets arriving from the HTTPS proxy as if they arrived from the remote server instead. This could allow an HTTPS proxy to trick libcurl into using the wrong session ticket for the host and thereby circumvent the server TLS certificate check. For the stable distribution (buster), these problems have been fixed in version 7.64.0-4+deb10u2. We recommend that you upgrade your curl packages.

This could result in data being sent to the wrong destination, possibly exposing sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.10. (CVE-2020-8231) Varnavas Papaioannou discovered that curl incorrectly handled FTP PASV responses. (CVE-2020-8284) It was discovered that curl incorrectly handled FTP wildcard matchins. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause curl to consume resources and crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2020-8285) It was discovered that curl incorrectly handled OCSP response verification. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to provide a fraudulent OCSP response. (CVE-2020-8286) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 20.10: curl 7.68.0-1ubuntu4.2 libcurl3-gnutls 7.68.0-1ubuntu4.2 libcurl3-nss 7.68.0-1ubuntu4.2 libcurl4 7.68.0-1ubuntu4.2 Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: curl 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.4 libcurl3-gnutls 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.4 libcurl3-nss 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.4 libcurl4 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.4 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: curl 7.58.0-2ubuntu3.12 libcurl3-gnutls 7.58.0-2ubuntu3.12 libcurl3-nss 7.58.0-2ubuntu3.12 libcurl4 7.58.0-2ubuntu3.12 Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: curl 7.47.0-1ubuntu2.18 libcurl3 7.47.0-1ubuntu2.18 libcurl3-gnutls 7.47.0-1ubuntu2.18 libcurl3-nss 7.47.0-1ubuntu2.18 In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes
