Detail

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 12.10 - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS - Ubuntu 11.10 - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - Ubuntu 8.04 LTS

Summary:

Applications using libcurl could be made to expose sensitive information over the network.

Software Description: - curl: HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP client and client libraries

Details:

YAMADA Yasuharu discovered that libcurl was vulnerable to a cookie leak when doing requests across domains with matching tails. curl did not properly restrict cookies to domains and subdomains. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted URL, an attacker could read cookie values stored by unrelated webservers.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 12.10:
curl 7.27.0-1ubuntu1.2
libcurl3 7.27.0-1ubuntu1.2

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
curl 7.22.0-3ubuntu4.1
libcurl3 7.22.0-3ubuntu4.1

Ubuntu 11.10:
curl 7.21.6-3ubuntu3.3
libcurl3 7.21.6-3ubuntu3.3

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
curl 7.19.7-1ubuntu1.2
libcurl3 7.19.7-1ubuntu1.2

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
curl 7.18.0-1ubuntu2.4
libcurl3 7.18.0-1ubuntu2.4

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

Description: Yamada Yasuharu discovered that cURL, an URL transfer library, is vulnerable to expose potentially sensitive information when doing requests across domains with matching tails.
