Yamada Yasuharu discovered that cURL, an URL transfer library, is
vulnerable to expose potentially sensitive information when doing
requests across domains with matching tails. Due to a bug in the
tailmatch function when matching domain names, it was possible that
cookies set for a domain ample.com could accidentally also be sent
by libcurl when communicating with example.com
.
Both curl the command line tool and applications using the libcurl
library are vulnerable.
