Detail

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

- Ubuntu 14.10 - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Summary:

curl could be tricked into adding arbitrary requests when following certain URLs.

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

Details:

Andrey Labunets discovered that curl incorrectly handled certain URLs when using a proxy server. If a user or automated system were tricked into using a specially crafted URL, an attacker could possibly use this issue to inject arbitrary HTTP requests.

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 14.10:
libcurl3 7.37.1-1ubuntu3.2
libcurl3-gnutls 7.37.1-1ubuntu3.2
libcurl3-nss 7.37.1-1ubuntu3.2

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:
libcurl3 7.35.0-1ubuntu2.3
libcurl3-gnutls 7.35.0-1ubuntu2.3
libcurl3-nss 7.35.0-1ubuntu2.3

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
libcurl3 7.22.0-3ubuntu4.12
libcurl3-gnutls 7.22.0-3ubuntu4.12
libcurl3-nss 7.22.0-3ubuntu4.12

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
libcurl3 7.19.7-1ubuntu1.11
libcurl3-gnutls 7.19.7-1ubuntu1.11

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