Vulnerability Details

CVEID: CVE-2015-3143
DESCRIPTION:
libcurl could allow a remote attacker from within the local network to bypass security restrictions, caused by the re-use of recently authenticated connections. By sending a new NTLM-authenticated request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to perform unauthorized actions with the privileges of the victim.
CVSS Base Score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/102888 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)

CVEID: CVE-2015-3148
DESCRIPTION:
libcurl and cRUL could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by improper use of the negotiate authentication method. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass access restrictions and connect as other users.
CVSS Base Score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/102878 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)

CVEID: CVE-2015-3153
DESCRIPTION:
cURL/libcURL could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by custom HTTP headers with sensitive content being sent to the server and intermediate proxy by the CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER option. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain authentication cookies or other sensitive information.
CVSS Base Score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/102989 for the current score

CVEID: CVE-2014-3613
DESCRIPTION:
cURL/libcURL could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the failure to properly detect and reject domain names for IP addresses. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to send cookies to an incorrect site.
CVSS Base Score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/95925 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)

CVEID: CVE-2014-3707
DESCRIPTION:
cURL/libcURL could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an error in the curl_easy_duphandle() function. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to corrupt heap memory and obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base Score: 6.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/98562 for the current score

CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:P)

CVEID: CVE-2014-8150
DESCRIPTION:
libcURL is vulnerable to CRLF injection, caused by the improper handling of URLs with embedded end-of-line characters. By persuading a victim to click on a specially-crafted URL link using an HTTP proxy, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to conduct various attacks against the vulnerable system, including cross-site scripting, cache poisoning or session hijacking.
CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/100567 for the current score
