CVE-2021-22876: Information Exposure
(updated )
curl to and including is vulnerable to an “Exposure of Private Personal Information to an Unauthorized Actor” by leaking credentials in the HTTP Referer: header. libcurl does not strip off user credentials from the URL when automatically populating the Referer: HTTP request header field in outgoing HTTP requests, and therefore risks leaking sensitive data to the server that is the target of the second HTTP request.
