CVE-2026-9545 — exposing HTTP/3 early data

Affected: curl

In this scenario, libcurl first uses a proper HTTP/3 server for the initial transfers, and when it makes a second transfer to the same site it has been replaced by the attacker's impostor machine - without a valid certificate.

When libcurl returns to the hostname the second time with a cached SSL session (`CURLOPT_SSL_SESSIONID_CACHE` is not disabled) and early data enabled (the `CURLSSLOPT_EARLYDATA` bit is set in `CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS`), libcurl might send off the second request's bytes on that new connection *before* enforcing the certificate verification failure. Potentially leaking sensitive information.

Andrew Nesbitt discovered that curl could reuse an existing live connection during STARTTLS-based connection upgrades even when the TLS configuration did not match. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause curl to use an unintended TLS configuration. (CVE-2026-8286)

Muhamad Arga Reksapati discovered that curl incorrectly reused connections for Negotiate-authenticated requests when different services were involved. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to access resources authenticated for another service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, Ubuntu 25.10, and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-8458)

It was discovered that curl incorrectly handled cookie parsing in certain circumstances. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to set cookies that would be transmitted to unrelated third-party domains. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, Ubuntu 25.10, and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-8924)

Joshua Rogers discovered that curl could double-free a GSASL context when handling SASL authentication. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, Ubuntu 25.10, and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-8925)
