CVE-2026-5773
None
No severity ratings or metrics are available. When they are, we'll update the corresponding info on the page.
libcurl might in some circumstances reuse the wrong connection for SMB(S)
transfers.
libcurl features a pool of recent connections so that subsequent requests can
reuse an existing connection to avoid overhead.
When reusing a connection a range of criteria must be met. Due to a logical
error in the code, a network transfer operation that was requested by an
application could wrongfully reuse an existing SMB connection to the same
server that was using a different "share" than the new subsequent transfer
should.
This could in unlucky situations lead to the download of the wrong file or the
upload of a file to the wrong place. When this happens, the same credentials
are used and the server name is the same.
