curl vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in curl.
Software Description:
- curl: HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP client and client libraries
Details:
USN-6718-1 fixed vulnerabilities in curl. This update provides the
corresponding updates for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
Original advisory details:
Dan Fandrich discovered that curl would incorrectly use the default set of
protocols when a parameter option disabled all protocols without adding
any, contrary to expectations. This issue only affected Ubuntu 23.10.
(CVE-2024-2004)
It was discovered that curl incorrectly handled memory when limiting the
amount of headers when HTTP/2 server push is allowed. A remote attacker
could possibly use this issue to cause curl to consume resources, leading
to a denial of service. (CVE-2024-2398)
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
curl 8.5.0-2ubuntu10.1
libcurl3t64-gnutls 8.5.0-2ubuntu10.1
libcurl4t64 8.5.0-2ubuntu10.1
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
