Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in cURL, an URL transfer library. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  • CVE-2014-0138 Steve Holme discovered that libcurl can in some circumstances re-use the wrong connection when asked to do transfers using other protocols than HTTP and FTP.

  • CVE-2014-0139 Richard Moore from Westpoint Ltd. reported that libcurl does not behave compliant to RFC 2828 under certain conditions and incorrectly validates wildcard SSL certificates containing literal IP addresses.
