CVE-2026-8927

CRITICAL CVSS: 9.1 Published: 2026-07-03 Modified: 2026-07-07

Description

When reusing a libcurl handle for sequential transfers driven by environment-variable proxy configuration, libcurl fails to clear the proxy authentication state between requests. Specifically, if the initial transfer authenticates against `proxyA` using Digest auth, a subsequent transfer routed through `proxyB` erroneously leaks the `Proxy-Authorization:` header intended solely for `proxyA`.

Affected Platforms

Haxx Curl

Weakness Type

CWE-294
